Hi Andrew,

I'm testing your patch on my embedded system and now I can see that GUI performance are very much better (particularly during application startup).

Thank you so much!

However running my test case (please see my first post) I see that CPU usage is always at 100% (after the application is running),
so the responsiveness is still not very good.

Do you think that there is still some places for improvement?
I'll try to use oprofile on my embedded system to see what's going wrong

Best Regards,

Francesco
