Hi
I find out why idle Enlightenment, without any launched application,
eats 4 to 7 % or more cpu: clock setting with seconds.
If i disable clock seconds settings or clock module, cpu stays about 0 %
Conditions:
Arch/Aur system
last Enlightenment + Efl git master (1.23.99) and previous versions
Xorg session
Htop in other user tty
This issue doesn't appear in Wayland session
Interesting: it seems Enlightenment X session eats more cpu than Wayland
session
yup. the clock flipping seconds consumes cpu. it's defined by theme. it
actually flickers/animated the numbers not just ticks them over with a single
draw. you can modify the theme to change this or disable seconds.
Thanks for this explanation
Question: how modify theme?
it's not
free. it'll consume about that in wayland too... the difference is when you
switch tty enlightenment STOPS RENDERING. it goes idle as it knows you switched
vt. e itself has to handle the vt switch. in x it has no idea you switched vt.
x doesn't tell e anything and it doesn't know, so it keeps going. ssh in and
run htop and measure there and you'll see it's the same just the vt switch is
the difference.
However, when i launch Htop inside wayland, i see Enlightenment consumes
less cpu than in X session...
