Hello,

first, let me say a big 'Thank you' for this fantastic client. The killer
feature for me is the vertical split, which I didn't find anywhere else.

Weechat seems to be very trigger-happy wrt. wakeups from sleep. A powertop
output like this is pretty usual:

Wakeups-from-idle per second : 195,1    interval: 10,0s

Top causes for wakeups:
  71,7% (145,4)    weechat-curses : schedule_timeout (process_timeout) 
   9,9% ( 20,0)       <interrupt> : ohci1394, ipw3945 

Even though I have lots of other processes running (full Gnome desktop,
firefox, lots of terminals, Pidgin, etc.) weechat causes the vast majority of
CPU wakeups which drains battery.

Is it possible to wake up less often?

Thanks, Martin
