Any way to reduce CPU usage?

🚀 The feature, motivation and pitch

The CPU usage of my terminal jumps to ~10% when the timer is counting down?
That feels high... curious if you see that as well and whether you've considered any ways to reduce?

Hey @colemand77 have you tried increasing update_interval in your pomo.nvim config?

[colemand77]

Hey @epwalsh - thanks for responding. Yeah, I did, but even at 5000 it's still around 7-8% of CPU.
Certainly usable but feels heavy for a countdown timer?
Guessing you don't see the same... I'm on a windows machine running WezTerm for whatever that's worth.

I do see a drop when setting to 5000 myself, although it's still a little higher than normal (~1%) when the timer is actively displayed through nvim-notify. Are you using nvim-notify too? When I hide the timer so it's only in my Lualine status bar CPU usage appears normal. There might be an nvim-notify setting to reduce CPU usage there.
