+**Boards and the watcher cost less on a busy tracker.** The watcher skips most of its work when a read finds nothing new, and a board skips a push that moved nothing it shows, while every board stays as current as before. A board now spends a third or less of the CPU it did, and holds over 40% less memory. The watcher spends about half the CPU, and its peak memory falls by about a third.
