           Summary: timeout inefficiency
           Product: Xfce Panel Plugins
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: PC (x86)
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Low
         Component: cpugraph
        AssignedTo: goodies-dev at xfce.org
        ReportedBy: matthias.christian at yahoo.de


Currently the XFCE4 CPUFreq plugin uses a poll-based method via a timeout to
update its status. This is very inefficient [1] and can cause unnecessary CPU
load. Please you use an event-based method like libevent [2].

(This bug report does not refer to cpugraph, but there is no component entry
for cpufreq.)
