Details
- UpdateInterval->t specifies that updating should, if possible, be done at least every t seconds.
- UpdateInterval->Infinity specifies that updating should never be done.
- UpdateInterval->0 specifies that updating should be done as fast as possible.

Force DateString to dynamically update every second:
Dynamic[Refresh[DateString[], UpdateInterval -> 1]]Use UpdateInterval directly in Dynamic:
Dynamic[DateString[], UpdateInterval -> 1]Force an update to be done as fast as possible:
ProgressIndicator[Dynamic[x, UpdateInterval -> 0]]x = 0;While[x < 1, x = x + 10^-6]Possible Issues (1)
Updates may happen more frequently than specified by UpdateInterval:
DynamicModule[{x}, Dynamic[x++, UpdateInterval -> 1], Initialization :> (x = 0)]You can lock the refreshes to UpdateInterval by also specifying TrackedSymbols:
DynamicModule[{x}, Dynamic[x++, TrackedSymbols -> {}, UpdateInterval -> 1], Initialization :> (x = 0)]Text
