Oh, I can use Grand Central Dispatch if that makes you feel better, but in the end something will have to check at certain times of interest whether indeed no events have arrived for the period of interest and it is about certain that XSync alarms do just that.

I'm beginning to wonder if anyone actually tried to understand what my code really does, though. It seems I got myself on the wrong track at some point, and thought up a need to use an adaptive polling interval where is probably no need at all to check the idle state ahead of the period of interest. In any case not since there's an event handler that can serve to reset the timeout measurement.
