Do you have the source for the emulator. It is possible to add some code that schedules an interrupt event and then does a nanosleep(). You indicated that this is an interpreter. Well so is the shell (bash). Bash and many other tools block on input and do nothing until there is work. Why is this code using so many cycles. If you find the busy loop you could insert a nanosleep() to tone it down. So if you do not have acpi throttling in an opensource world look at the application to see how to fix things. -- T o m M i t c h e l l Me, I would "Rather" Not.
