During this run, espeakup had an average of 1669.1 wakeups / second. Ok, I know what is happening here.

I will take a look at how I am using the select call. > PowerTOP 1.11 (C) 2007, 2008 Intel Corporation > > Collecting data for 15 seconds > > > < Detailed C-state information is not available.> > P-states (frequencies) > Wakeups-from-idle per second : 2075.9 interval: 15.0s > no ACPI power usage estimate available > Top causes for wakeups: > 80.4% (1669.1) espeakup : hrtimer_start_range_ns (hrtimer_wakeup) > 14.9% (309.2) <interrupt> : VIA8237 > 2.5% ( 51.1) <interrupt> : ra0 > 1.3% ( 26.3) <kernel core> : hrtimer_start_range_ns (tick_sched_timer) > 0.4% ( 8.0) <kernel module> : usb_hcd_poll_rh_status (rh_timer_func) > 0.2% ( 3.3) <interrupt> : PS/2 keyboard/mouse/touchpad > 0.1% ( 2.0) <kernel core> : clocksource_register (clocksource_watchdog) > 0.1% ( 1.5) emacs : synth_printf (thread_wake_up) > 0.0% ( 1.0) dhcpcd : MlmeInit (MlmePeriodicExec) > 0.0% ( 0.3) <kernel core> : neigh_table_init_no_netlink (neigh_periodic_timer) > 0.0% ( 0.3) <kernel module> : neigh_table_init_no_netlink (neigh_periodic_timer) > 0.0% ( 0.2) <interrupt> : sata_via > 0.0% ( 0.2) init : hrtimer_start_range_ns (hrtimer_wakeup) > 0.0% ( 0.2) <kernel core> : page_writeback_init (wb_timer_fn) > 0.0% ( 0.1) kinit : start_this_handle (commit_timeout) > 0.0% ( 0.1) events/0 : queue_delayed_work (delayed_work_timer_fn) > 0.0% ( 0.1) mpd : announce_edge (kd_nosound) > 0.0% ( 0.1) <kernel core> : announce_edge (kd_nosound) > > _______________________________________________ > Speakup mailing list > Speakup at braille.uwo.ca > http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.11 (GNU/Linux) iEYEARECAAYFAkogFQ0ACgkQblQW9DDEZTh2hwCghbU6ciU8uU8gyqxf96VRkIWC GKMAn1TKtI5ebj4R1YGs6A/itNHMqYUV =/8v2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
