Soundfiler should be threaded, shouldn't it?

Yes, and also should netsend and netreceive be...

And what about the gui? As far as I got it Pd uses one thread and all the data it has to send to the gui has to fit into one DSP 'frame'. This way graphic intensive obejcts can lead to dropouts.

To avoid this I usually delete all 'moving' objects (numberboxes, sliders... as far as not needed for input) from my patches before using them in a concert / installation. Maybe it would make sense to multithread this too?
