Live inputs were read, sent and drawn 60 times a second for every component, moving or not.

• Kit: a device's axes are read once per sample. Each axis read asked the kernel for every axis of the device, one call per axis, and a sample read them once per pedal, once for the angle and again for the hats; the components of a base share the reading now.
• SDK: a plugin sends input/state only when the inputs change (the protocol already allowed fewer states than the rate). simrig-cli watch keeps waiting on a still device after the first state.
• App: components with axes only (base, pedals, handbrake) are read at 5 Hz after a second without moving, and at the live rate again on the first change; components with buttons, hats or a gear stay at the live rate, so no quick press falls between two readings.
• Graphics mode in Settings, replacing Reduce motion: Reduced motion (no transitions, steering wheel and handbrake drawings still, numbers and pedal bars still live; 30 Hz), 30 Hz (default), 60 Hz. The live rate sets both how often the plugins read and how often the app draws. reduced_motion = true in gui.toml becomes the Reduced motion mode.

Measured with main merged (#19 included). Real rig (CSL DD, wheel, pedals, shifter, handbrake), still, CPU of one core: Fanatec plugin 1.9% → 1.0–1.4%, app 1.2% → 0.6%, generic USB plugin about 0.3%, no frames drawn.

Simulated rig, everything moving, window visible:

Mode	fps	App CPU	App GPU
before (60 Hz, badge redrawing twice)	120	18%	14.5%
Reduced motion	30	9.9%	3.4%
30 Hz	30	10.0%	3.5%
60 Hz	60	18.1%	7.3%
