Hello!

What a great project - impressive!

I had my 1st c4fm, d-star and dmr qso so "it is working". But I have some questions anyway. What is the typical load average on a Raspberry Pi Zero W with MMDVM_HS_Hat (if I do nothing)?

Here my load is about something more than 1 (sometimes over 2). The output of procinfo tells me (after some few minutes uptime):

Bootup: Wed Dec 2 13:34:58 2020 Load average: 1.13 1.33 1.32 1/117 6165

user : 00:04:42.06 19.1% page in : 194141
nice : 00:00:00.23 0.0% page out: 1489
system: 00:04:16.26 17.4% page act: 17394
IOwait: 00:00:02.93 0.2% page dea: 10
hw irq: 00:00:00.00 0.0% page flt: 896087
sw irq: 00:00:15.05 1.0% swap in : 0
idle : 00:15:18.13 62.3% swap out: 0
uptime: 00:25:49.82 context : 2474704

The process list does not show any specially cpu eating process. top says:

4857 root 10 -10 46544 36496 3228 S 6.1 7.4 0:48.10 MMDVMHost

5887 www-data 20 0 127084 10744 8420 S 2.2 2.2 0:03.30 php-fpm7.0

Is this ok?
