Description

Hello.
I was testing examples and they seem to use a high CPU. My idea is that if there is no data they create "empty" iterations.
After adding some code seems like I can get 300 FPS which of course is not easy to schedule on Windows.
I wonder if number 300 is something you can confirm or it might be something specific to my PC?
Thanks.

Research direction

Start with the examples and reproduce the high CPU behavior when no IMU data is available, especially on Windows. Measure whether empty iterations occur and whether the reported 300 FPS is reproducible; done means documenting the confirmed update frequency and the expected behavior.
