so there is some activity all the time. Is this something that can be
avoided?
You need to find out what's doing it. I suspect that those system
calls are related to timers, but that's all we can tell from them.
Using breakpoints you could see if this really is running a timer, and
you could see what timer functions are being called. Then we would
know the relevant facts, rather than just guessing (which is very
inefficient).
strace is a very inarticulate way of describing what a program is
doing. It was invented for examining the functioning of programs for
which the user does not have source code, and I am surprised that so many
GNU/Linux users turn to that rather than to GDB.
