I have an installation where a pharo powered hardware is used in a closed case.
Over time that collects quite some heat. One reason for this is that the pharo
vm is taking approx. 6% CPU all the time. The only thing that happens is
network/sockets. I suspended the ui thread in the image but on this platform it
doesn't help.
Are there any tweaks to lower the polling and the activity of the image/vm even
more?
Right now having an event driven VM is the way but it is not on the horizon. JB
was starting to look at that when he worked on the android part.
Are the prerequisites for having things event driven known? Is that a huge task
for the vm if things need to call in instead of being called?
I do not know. What I can tell you is that we are doing our best and I'm
try to get funding.
This is three years that I apply to EU funding and fail :). But if I get
it I have 8 years engineers planned.
