I'm starting to swim in boilerplate code trying account It's more about what you don't do than what you do, so code examples are not the best way ;-). - Minimize network & disk access - Time "periodic" network access with "ip heartbeat" (iphb_*). You can check how modest does it for details. - Do not wake up unnecessarily (e.g. periodic g_timeout_add stuff). > for all the ways power-saving might be an issue.

That stuff isn't too bad because your process will be in running state on those occasions anyway. The badness comes from waking up, raher than not doing something when having woken up. -- Ville M.
