freemangordon: hi guys, I compiled tox for Maemo5 (Nokia N900) then performed some tests with nTox. While playing with it, I saw there is high CPU usage when idle. after googling a bit, I found this https://libtoxcore.so/getting_starte...to-come-to-you . Unfortunately those functions have been removed https://github.com/irungentoo/toxcor...8e53666aa91739 . Is there any replacement API I can use, as in its current shape (calling tox_do every n msecs), tox is unusable on battery operated devices?
freemangordon: irungentoo: ^^^
irungentoo: freemangordon, uint32_t tox_do_interval(Tox *tox);
irungentoo: freemangordon, the other functions were removed because nobody used them
freemangordon: irungentoo: if I read the code correctly, the minimum value is 50 ms
irungentoo: text chats should work with 500ms
irungentoo: but if you do file transfers or A/V, you need to call it more
freemangordon: whatever the interval is, it is still polling for events, thus waking CPU no matter if there is data to be processed or not
irungentoo: there will always be data
freemangordon: irungentoo: ok, I'll rephrase my question - is there any chance to bring back tox_wait_xxx API?
irungentoo: freemangordon, it didn't work and increased the number of times tox_do() was run
freemangordon: I see
