What can YOUR mirror do?

Mykle1

Hey!

I was just messing around, trying to throw an extreme load at my next mirror. This will be my third. My first was with a Pi3 B. My second was with an old laptop. That became a vanity mirror. And this my third. I have some new ideas for this one. But, I digress . . .

I wanted to see if I could stress my hardware. I stopped trying after 10 simultaneous animations failed to produce any ill effects, lag, stuttering, etc… Nothing. Nada. Zippo. Zilch! Not too shabby for an 11 year old cpu.

Sorry about the noise. I was smoking a cigarette and I forgot to turn off the exhaust fan.

Me too. It’s the reason I made this module in the first place.

You’re in luck. I made it a few months ago. You can choose from a nice assortment. The “eye” being number 1.

But i only have a Pi3.

Ok, here’s the thing. It runs just fine on a Pi3. However, if you have a lot of other modules running, especially those that are cpu intensive, you might see some loss of fluid animation. Many modules transitioning at the same time could have the same effect.

Two instances of the module in the config.js, both with the eye selected, will give you a pair of eyes. A little css management and you can get them relatively close together.

So, go here

and scroll down and click on MMM-EyeCandy. Feel free to browse the other modules, too.

Mine is also hosting PiHole and also doing a cron job every hour to test ISP download speeds

I don’t have any processor intensive modules installed.
