I've wanted variable dac block size as well, for embedding libpd in a plugin.. I'm guessing PD doesn't play well with jack when jack's block size is less than 64?

the joys of having not needing to support multiple operating systems?

also, the overhead with a blocksize of 8 is considerably higher than a
blocksize of 64, so when using *heavy* Pd-patches you might hit
performance problems sooner than later.

anyhow, i'm all for having a variable dac blocksize
$ pd -dacblocksize 8

ain't this is a deja vu [1]?
