The TAP system use this criteria to determine wether to call _draw() or not
Iff during the last 3 seconds  _packet() was called for the tap listener and
_packet()
returned TRUE,  then _draw() will be called.


If _packet() has returned TRUE and _draw() has not been called to perform an
update within
3 seconds, then that would be a bug in the tap subsystem
