problem would more likely arise from representing and handling large, dynamic data sets in pd without using something like an array. Maybe a vertex array object that uses a pd array for data is an option.
yes, but i think that pd's arrays are not ideal for this, because of low-dimensionality. i really do not like the way [linear_path] et al handle this. It doesn't allow you to interact with the data (like drawing in an array) Maybe we should extend pd's capabilities to arrays before ? (i'm not sure, whether the [matrix]-approach of zexy is much better: you cannot interact with the data, but at least it is ordered somehow meaningful. but it would be nice to have a real multi-dimensional structure for numbers)
