High CPU load
I am testing OpenDeck on Linux and I noticed that it is using about 18 % of a CPU core which seems somewhat wasteful. Is that normal?
OpenDeck v2.6.0 (bb64d0e)
Ubuntu 24.04.3 LTS (X11)

How many plugins are you using and which ones?
The only installed plugin is "OpenDeck Starter Pack". And the load seems to be about 15 % for a CPU core even with totally empty configuration (no configuration for any of the buttons).
Can confirm. The first thought was plugins, but even after removing all of them I see about 10% of CPU load all the time
Just checked and its the same for me (around 10%) on Arch KDE Wayland with newest git.
If CPU load is typically so high even when not much should be happening, I hope it can be somehow lowered in the future.
Btw, I have usually at least several dozens of Chrome windows open. When I closed Chrome, the CPU load of OpenDeck dropped to about half of it was. I wonder is OpenDeck perhaps constantly going through of all open windows for some reason which is causing that CPU load?
very interesting, I think it is
@Skeptikko did this happen before 2.6.0?
This happens on: OpenDeck v2.6.0 (bb64d0e) on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu
yea but i mean did it still happen before in 2.5.0 or is it new
I haven't used OpenDeck before this version
