Hi Misbah, I can share my experience on this matter, too, as I had your
same symptoms. Forgive me for top-posting.
My embedded system (arm-linux) includes a framebuffer driver which polls
over /dev/fb0 a certain amount of times per second (about 30), so the
time lag between a nano-x API call and the on-display effect is not a
driver's fault. I noticed such time lag (some hundreds of second,
partial refreshes, etc.) if the userspace process calls a nano-x API and
goes immediately to sleep. Otherwise, if the process, after the nano-x
API call has to handle a message, a signal, a serial input, etc. the
on-screen refresh is immediate and total. So I managed my process not to
go to sleep immediately and the problem was solved.
By the way, I use statically linked nano-x lib, with
LINK_APP_INTO_SERVER = Y into config file.
Hope this helps,
