timeMode

I have several patches that need pull data down from a series of urls. I use async url fetches. I can pull the url during the first frame after I trigger a refresh signal through an input port on my patches. However, the data is not processed and published to my output ports until the next frame loads. I want this to happen immediately after the url is loaded. I think I have at least two options.

1. I can leave the time mode to kQCPlugInTimeModeNone, which will only update when I trigger the next refresh. I could trigger a second refresh through the composition. This keeps CPU low but keeps seems like kind of a hack to me.

2. I can change the time mode to kQCPlugInTimeModeIdle, updates automatically, and very quickly. However, this method chews up a lot more CPU.

3. Something else.

Do I understand these options correctly, or is there something better I can do.
