Would using liblirc_client instead of the current "homebrew" implementation 
help out with this?


Also, somewhat off topic: when running powertop[1] on my VDR box, I see lircd 
waking up the CPU from idle about 1000 times a second while VDR is connected 
to it:

Top causes for wakeups:
  54.3% (988.1)             lircd : schedule_timeout (process_timeout)
  28.5% (518.4)               vdr : futex_wait (hrtimer_wakeup)
[...]

I already tried adding some cCondWait::SleepMs's to VDR's lirc action loop but 
it didn't seem to have any effect.  Any ideas whether this is something that 
VDR could do anything about, or if it's a LIRC internal thing?
