How do I find out why the render loop is running?

[Tomas Mikula]

There might be some kind of infinite loop which is not apparent due to
asynchrony, such as recursive Platform.runLater

    void foo() {
        Platform.runLater(this::foo);
    }

or an infinite loop in layout:

    void layoutChildren() {
        Platform.runLater(this::requestLayout);
    }
