root/lm-sensors/branches/lm-sensors-3.0.0/CHANGES @ 5266

Revision 5266, 5.3 KB (checked in by khali, 5 years ago)

Cache the byte data reads. As we keep reading the same registers over
and over again in the detection functions, and SMBus can be slow,
caching results in a big performance boost. This closes ticket #2326.
