Muster Agent 0.3.8
Muster now rests when nothing is happening. A finished chat had kept the graphics process and the window busy (about 29% and 13% CPU on a Mac), which warmed the laptop for no reason.
| While idle, in a headless test | 0.3.7 | 0.3.8 |
|---|---|---|
| Frames drawn per second with a running-chat spinner visible | 60.9 | 11.8 |
| Same, window unfocused | 60.9 | 2 (animations paused) |
| Compositor work per second (GPU thread) | 29.5 ms | 12.1 ms |
| Renderer script work per second | 2.5 ms | 0.11 ms |
| Screen updates per second with nothing changing | 0.20 | 0 |
- Animations pause when the window is in the background. Spinners and pulses stop while Muster is unfocused or hidden and resume when you come back. The running-chat spinner now turns in 12 steps, like the macOS spinner, instead of redrawing the whole window 60 times a second.
- Clocks and polls rest too. "Up to date as of…" and sidebar ages refresh once a minute and only while the window is active. Pull-request checks, the hand-back countdown display and live-view timers pause in the background. The open-ports check backs off from every 4 s to every 30 s when nothing changes.
- The summary card no longer redraws itself every 15 seconds when the git status hasn't changed (#356).
