It might seem that way, but that's not what's going on. When you deploy to
the real time platform, those sockets that pass live data to the GUI on the
host side either slow things down enormously, or take place with such low
priority that they never or rarely happen. You need to religiously keep
your real time process from sending live data to the GUI!
