slow startup #135

Open hebertodelrio opened 10 years ago

hebertodelrio commented 10 years ago

I have been playing with both Dino gem and Artoo-arduino gem for some projects that I want to do with my students. I am inclining more for Artoo since we want to do AR.Drone too and it is better to have a unified framework for our students.

Unfortunately I noticed that Dino start up time is way shorter than Artoo-arduino,

Is there any way to speed up artoo-arduino? Is there any way to stop running the HTTP Server every time that a robot is runned? Is there any way to avoid having those: I, [2014-08-17T10:06:16.305577 #9574] INFO -- : Registering connection 'firmata'... messages at the beginning of every program when it is started up? Is there anything to do to improve the start up time in artoo-arduino?

Thanks in advance

I know Artoo is very fast when running, due to using Celluloid. Let's see what we can do about startup time... we will look into it, for sure.
