While I'm happy that EFL is working on the tiny little embedded 800MHz 486 board, it might be a tad underpowered.
At one point during this devices typical usage, it has to send stuff to a serial printer, play a sound (through a USB based built in sound chip), AND do a simple edje animation. At other times, it might be doing one of the more complex animations, but need to play a short sound on demand. The printer is kinda fussy about the timing of stuff sent to it. After a short bit of testing, the sounds sometimes stutter quite badly during the heavier animations, but is smooth during the others. However, this is in a test mode, where there is more stuff on the screen to slow things down. It's my understanding that edje runs in the idler, so shouldn't the sound and printer, which both use ecore FD handlers to know when it's a good time to write, have priority? I can probably fine tune things enough with judicious edje freezes, or frame time, or something. It does not really matter if the animations are a little jerky, might not even be noticeable, but the sound and printing have to be spot on. Any hints from those more experienced with edge and FD handlers? -- A big old stinking pile of genius that no one wants coz there are too many silver coated monkeys in the world.
