Hi All,
I have a latency sensitive application that gets affected when it is
moved between cores or the system has to wake from idling. I would like
to run the thread in as tight a loop as possible and to do this i need
to cause epollreactor to busyspin on receiving data. I have worked out
how to do it by editing the twisted code directly by hard coding the
value of `timeout` to be 0 at this location in the code
https://github.com/twisted/twisted/blob/f074ba3d5083aa1503abcf194aece327e7f84805/twisted/internet/epollreactor.py#L370
Is it possible to actually set this on the reactor in a more sensible
way so I don't need to patch the twisted codebase. ? Below is basically
what I am doing.
```
def doPoll(self, timeout):
"""
Poll the poller for new events.
"""
+ timeout = 0
- if timeout is None:
- timeout = -1 # Wait indefinitely.
try:
```
Cheers
Tim Hughes
