Consider various polling delay possibilities #46

Closed rocky closed 5 years ago

rocky commented 5 years ago

It has been noticed that a 1 second poling may put a strain on the backend.

One alternative suggested is to set to a larger number - 2 would cut the API requests in half - but then for interactive use we may need an option to control this to keep it small

Another alternative is exponentially increasing delay.

Consider and implement something as the necessity of it arises.

We now do geometric polling.
