I have a Timer element set to count 100 Pulses per 1 second but it's counting to 64 (as displayed in a text field).

Timer Settings:
Pulses in time period: 100
Time Period [s]: 1

IntervalTimer set to 1000ms, started with a button press.

This is not very precise, it depends on the "Sleep time" design setting, can't be higher than 1000/sleeptime, but can be lower. The Sleep Time most precise (lowest) value is 10ms (due to Windows limitation). So it should be at least 50 and up to 100 per second unless something in the design is slowing it down (like dialogs).
