[ENet-discuss] 4 seconds stalls.. congestion problem?

[Mark Palkow]

Couldn't the problem be  

while( enet_host_service (client, & event, 0) > 0 )

because it takes all the CPU (100%)?
shouldn't it be something like:

while( enet_host_service (client, & event, 10) > 0 )

so that the CPU gets a chance to handle other task like the network stack?
regards Mark

I am doing this every 1/60th second:

   while( enet_host_service (client, & event, 0) > 0 )
   {
         switch (event.type)
         {
		case ENET_EVENT_TYPE_RECEIVE:
		        // ( handle packet )
			enet_packet_destroy (event.packet);
			break;
                case ENET_EVENT_TYPE_DISCONNECT: // (handle disconnect here)
	 }
   }

As I understand it that will process all available events.
