[Xastir] Re: xastir and cpu

[Curt, WE7U]

Here's Xastir after 2 hours of runtime, running with a full firenet
feed and weather alerts turned on:

It looks like if we make the top two functions more efficient or
call them less frequently, Xastir would use quite a bit less CPU.

I'll try another run with weather alerts turned off.
