* generally computed based on more long term statistics about the streams
* timestamps compared to the clock.
*
* A value < 1.0 indicates that the upstream element is producing data faster
* than real-time. A value > 1.0 indicates that the upstream element is not
* producing data fast enough. 1.0 is the ideal proportion value. The
* proportion value can safely be used to lower or increase the quality of
* the element.
*
* difference is the difference against the clock in running time of the last
* buffer that caused the element to generate the QOS event. A negative value
* means that the buffer with timestamp arrived in time. A positive value
* indicates how late the buffer with timestamp was.
*
* timestamp is the timestamp of the last buffer that cause the element
* to generate the QOS event. It is expressed in running time and thus an ever
* increasing value.
*
* The upstream element can use the diff and timestamp values to decide
* whether to process more buffers. For positive difference, all buffers with
* timestamp <= timestamp + difference will certainly arrive late in the sink
* as well.
*
* The application can use general event probes to intercept the QoS
* event and implement custom application specific QoS handling.

* @param difference the time difference of the last Clock sync
