Firmware 151 takes 9seconds to boot verses 150 3seconds

johnnyfp · May 14, 2020, 1:29am

Hi,
I’ve recently updated to the latest release of the firmware (v1.5.1) and have noticed that my setup is taking nearly 9 seconds to boot. Below is a sample output of the following code that I’ve run on both firmware versions.
I can fix this and speed things up by single_threading my routine, but would like to try and avoid that. Any ideas as to why this is happening?

Code used

SYSTEM_THREAD(ENABLED);
SYSTEM_MODE(MANUAL);

Logger lu("lu");
StreamLogHandler* loggingHandler;

void scan_i2c_bus() {
  lu("Scanning I2C bus");
  String found;
  String errors;

  SINGLE_THREADED_BLOCK(){ //Remove to slow startup down.
    for(int address = 1; address < 127; address++ )
    {
      Wire.beginTransmission(address);
      uint8_t error = Wire.endTransmission();
      lu("Processing :%d",address);
      if (error == 0)
      {
        found += String::format("[%02x]", address);
      }
      else if (error==4)
      {
        
        errors += String::format("[%02x]", address);
      }    
    }
  }
  
  lu("I2C devices at addr %s", found.c_str());
  if (errors.length() > 0) {
    lu("I2C errors at addr %s", errors.c_str());
  }
  lu("Finished scanning I2C bus");
}

void setup() {
  WiFi.off();
  loggingHandler=new Serial1LogHandler(57600,LOG_LEVEL_ALL,{{ "lu",LOG_LEVEL_ALL}});
  Wire.begin();
  scan_i2c_bus();
  lu("Done Setup");
}


void loop() {
  delay(5000);
}

Output from code without single_threaded_block

What do you define as ‘boot’ - completing setup()? You seem to be doing an I2C bus scan in setup()?

My experience has been similar. From the time power is applied (or a reset), it takes far longer to get to breathing cyan mode. In my case, I’ve noticed this on an Argon, but haven’t really had the opportunity to view this on other model.
