Hi folks, I want to add an optional argument for object creation time to Scheme for Pd to allow setting the starting heap size, which can dramatically lower garbage collector times. In Scheme for Max 0.3 I added the @heap attr. I'm not sure what the normal way to do this kind of thing is in Pd. The catch is that this arg needs to be optional (beginners shouldn't have to worry about it) and needs to be set at object creation time because you can't change the starting heap size after creating the s7 interpreter. So I'm somewhat reluctant to just add a 3rd integer arg. Suggestions welcome!
thanks! iain
