The server runs in a tight loop even when in "relaxed" mode (10 second idle timeout)

I would suggest to add this simple change to keep the raspberry much cooler and not using so much power when idle/relaxed; 

diff --git a/Code/Server/Control.py b/Code/Server/Control.py

Thank you for your suggestion. We will optimize the code. Have a nice day. :)
