Using variable_set() is a very expensive operation that can cause cache stampedes and other horrible side effects for performance. This module simply adds a timestamp column to the variables table to track down which variables are changing.
Alternatively, a unique variables backend can be used with the patch in #1193396: Make variable subsystem pluggable via includes/variable.inc
