Are you saying it is more efficient to continuously stream data to the robot controller that is not needed? Prior to this year, that was a really good way to lock up the cRio.
We have chosen to only evaluate target data when it is needed. Otherwise, the transfer of data is wasted CPU cycles. Call it inefficient if you will, but it's still way more efficient to transfer 24 bytes of data only two to three times in autonomous, then it is to continuously use processor cycles to process a stream.
