During some profiling work i noticed that thread XBPython StorageServer.py ("Common plugin Cache") keeps hammering my system with a socket select in StorageServer.py every 0,5 sec. This consumes a lot of cpu power on iPad/iPhone/Androids/RPi's. Is this a bug or feature? "time.sleep(0.5)" is the guilty line down below in section 2. Btw, what's the purpose of that poll loop? /Thanks, Lars.

Call path:

1. File: "addons/script.common.plugin.cache/default.py"

Code:

def run():
    sys.path = [settings.getAddonInfo('path') + "/lib"] + sys.path
    import StorageServer
    s = StorageServer.StorageServer(False)
    print " StorageServer Module loaded RUN"
    print s.plugin + " Starting server"
    s.run()
    return True

2. File: "addons/script.common.plugin.cache/lib/StorageServer.py"

Code:

while not self._aborting():
            if waiting == 0:
                self._log("accepting", 3)
                waiting = 1
            try:
                (self.clientsocket, address) = sock.accept()
                if waiting == 2:
                    self._log("Waking up, slept for %s seconds." % int(time.time() - idle_since))
                waiting = 0
            except socket.error, e:
                if e.errno == 11 or e.errno == 10035 or e.errno == 35:
                    # There has to be a better way to accomplish this.
                    if idle_since + self.idle < time.time():
                        if self.instance:
                            self.die = True
                        if waiting == 1:
                            self._log("Idle for %s seconds. Going to sleep. zzzzzzzz " % self.idle)
                        time.sleep(0.5)
                        waiting = 2
                    continue
                self._log("EXCEPTION : " + repr(e))
            except:
                pass
