I have a RPI B+ running raspbian. Python 2 code.
a single LX window started with startx (just the one window for a GUI) just a silly thing right now. Uses tkinter, no problems. Pyserial com at 115200 baud. Window updates speedy, but the data sure doesn't.
I haven't yet written much code, but am looking for advise on how to get better throughput.
The code isn't worth listing yet.
I examined the serial terminal py application, and it seems to handle about half the baud rate since it falls behind and buffers the test data text my computer sends.
My code's not as nice as that anyway, so I wondered if there were a few Linux commands to disable some non-essential services that I could use...
