How to determine if a certain method is called more often than planned or allowed?

To determine if a method is called more frequently than planned, profiling and call logging can be used. The following approaches are suitable for Android:

• Logging calls: Add a call counter to the method and log its value, for example, using Log.d.
• Using Android Studio Profiler: The CPU profiler allows tracking how many times and how often the method is called.
• Metrics and analytics: Incorporate custom metrics using Firebase Performance Monitoring or other tools to monitor call frequency.

Example of a simple call counter:

class MyClass {
    private var callCount = 0

    fun myMethod() {
        callCount++
        Log.d("MyClass", "myMethod called $callCount times")
        // rest of the method code
    }
}

If the counter grows too quickly or exceeds expected values, it indicates that the method is called more often than necessary.
