Hi,
If I send a few hundreds packed OSC messages with [udpsend], it blocks
for about 100-200 milliseconds or more (I see the message "udpsend
blocked for xxx milliseconds" in the console, and I notice the effects).
I know that this is a lot of messages and I can (and have to) optimize
things by avoiding sending unnecessary data, but:
I have replaced [udpsend] with a [netsend 1] (this is by no means a
workaround, just a test to compare performance) and if I send the very
same messages (which actually means sending much more bytes), netsend
does _not_ block for such a long time. It doesn't print any such message
(and netsend does print it if it blocks for a significant time) and I
don't notice any delay. I have verified that it is actually sending the
data.
So I wonder, is there an intrinsic reason why udspend takes much more
time than netsend to send a certainly smaller amount of data? Or is
udpsend simply implemented in a less efficient way? Does anybody know
where the bottleneck is and if there is a way to eliminate it?
thanks
m.
