In order to get a hard guarantee that your process is not going to
use half (or more) of the CPU even when nothing else is waiting to run,
you would probably need to use an OS that provided "real time"
processes and processor quanta. Common operating systems don't
provide those kind of facilities (though I don't know if Linux has
them.)
What I am looking for is something like the 'doevents()' call in VB which allows one to keep the OS responsive while running my app (a game). I mean, how do all games do it? They have to loop somewhere in order to receive input... Or do they use some form of event-driven code?
