* status: new => closed * resolution: => wontfix Comment: The only advantage of epoll is that it scales better if you have a large number of file descriptors. However, in PA we usually have only very few: the sound device and a very limited number of clients. Presumably using epoll would actually be a bad thing because it increases the overall number of system calls necessary. The "lennart" branch in SVN now contains a module "module-supend-on-idle" which when loaded makes sure all audio devices are closed when nothing is played. This brings the number of interrupts to zero, when idle. -- Ticket URL: <http://pulseaudio.org/ticket/107#comment:2> PulseAudio <http://pulseaudio.org/> The PulseAudio Sound Server _______________________________________________ pulseaudio-tickets mailing list pulseaudio-tickets@mail.0pointer.de https://tango.0pointer.de/mailman/listinfo/pulseaudio-tickets
