Category: pd-extended Group: None Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: frey (freynz) Assigned to: Hans-Christoph Steiner (eighthave) Summary: ui performance bad on 0.40.3-extended
Initial Comment: In the UI on MacOSX/Intel (and probably other platforms), opening a patch, and dragging objects around in a patch, is significantly slower in Pd-0.40.3-extended than in 0.40.2-vanilla.
This problem exists back to at least the 2008-01-08 autobuild.
Attached patches demonstrate the problem. Open up ui-slowness-test.pd. On 0.40.2-vanilla, this loads quickly. on 0.40.3-extended, there's a noticeable delay on load.
Now select all objects and drag. On 0.40.2-vanilla the performance is bad but not atrocious. on 0.40.3-extended, the performance is atrocious.

i just tried it without preferences or .pdrc file, and got the same thing.
.. and on 0.41.4-vanilla the performance is exactly the same as 0.40.2-vanilla.

It seems there was a similar report a while back, but with no example patch:
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=1839447&gr...
"when opening a patch, the screen takes a little while to show--first all the objects show up, then after almost 1/2 second the connections show. after doing something--eg hitting cmd-s, it takes some time for the system to be ready for the next action: hitting eg cmd-1 or cmd-e directly doesn't do anything. wait a second, and it works again. this was not the case in earlier autobuilds (march this year). pd ext-40-03 recent autobuilds on osx 10.4.x (both on .8 and on recently upgraded .10)"

Using this example patch with Pd-extended 0.40.3-extended-20080627 on my 3rd gen MacBook Pro running Mac OS X 10.4.11/Intel, there is no noticable difference in load time when compared to Pd 0.41-4. It is slower for dragging, so I'll look into that. But it is far from atrocious on my machine it is quite usable, just a bit of a lag makes it feel somewhat heavy.
I am using the default preferences. Have you tried removing your prefereneces? Also what version of Mac OS X are you on?
I'll test on older G4 today.
