Context:
Most of my script is idle, waiting for the sleep() func to call. I timed my program and it should be active for at maximum 150 "cpu seconds" a day. But with 6 of these programs running (maximum 900 cpu seconds a day), it surpasses 13,000 "cpu seconds" and always goes into the tarpit.
Question:
Does pythonanywhere count the seconds when my script hits func sleep()? Is there another way to optimize cpu seconds that I'm not aware of?
