>Could this tiny loop consume 6-7% CPU cycles? Thanks for all of the responses, I will test tomorrow. I have noted that there are no other service processes that are waiting for some action but show up with CPU cycles above 0 in the top display... So there is obviously something that can be done, possibly not by free pascal though... Most other services are written in other languages, I assume. Example for the two openvpn service processes I have on another RPi: top - 01:57:13 up 91 days, 11:04, 2 users, load average: 0.04, 0.04, 0.00 Tasks: 2 total, 0 running, 2 sleeping, 0 stopped, 0 zombie %Cpu(s): 0.1 us, 0.0 sy, 0.0 ni, 99.9 id, 0.0 wa, 0.0 hi, 0.0 si, 0.0 st KiB Mem : 948304 total, 45656 free, 506952 used, 395696 buff/cache KiB Swap: 102396 total, 86780 free, 15616 used. 357904 avail Mem PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 458 openvpn 20 0 8588 5180 4508 S 0.0 0.5 5:47.97 openvpn 438 openvpn 20 0 8588 5328 4568 S 0.0 0.6 5:45.86 openvpn -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org https://lists.freepascal.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
