During stress test, my test application fails and throws poll() timeout error.

I need to debug what is the state of my driver during that time. I
added prints in driver poll(), but I gets lots of debug prints if
poll() timeout is more.

So I am wonder if it is possible to get a single debug print for this scenario?
