I currently have a web socket based service which uses $rootScope.$apply to notify angular when a new response arrives. This has proven to be very inefficient. I know this is the document solution for async (out of digest cycle) events, however it's the resulting $rootScope.$digest is so expensive that it's become impractical. For example I have very small messages indicating if a user is typing. This updates a simple string in a very small scope in the UI. However the digest cycle that results from it takes 18-40ms to complete. In the case that many people are typing at the same time the CPU gets thrashed.
Can anyone offer an alternative to $rootScope.$apply? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "AngularJS" group.
