The example code are very CPU intensive. On a pi zero the cpu is running at 95%+

which example?

Mohoganogan commented 4 years ago

Only the random sparkles does not use 95%+ of the cpu on a zero. Installed on a clean minimal raspian install.

I guess that's the only one with a sleep in it. The rest just go as fast as they can. If you need to free up resources to do something else, you could try adding in a sleep to slow it down. If you don't, it should be fine at 95%.
