Hey all
Before I report anything to a tracker, I may ask whether it was an
intentional change. Up until 0.48, the label text of any gui widgets
(sliders, etc.) appeared above the front. Since 0.48, the front covers
the label text, changing the appearance of patches that have
overlapping front and label.
See here:

I agree. I recorded 8 channel multitrack from Pd to Ardour using a single core Thinkpad back in the day with no drop outs.
You could try running Pd with a different nice level. Even though it has "realtime priority" it sometimes helps to cue the scheduler a little more directly.

Hi,
I built a 64 bit version of the scheduler for pd-vst , a wraper to use
puredata with all its externals as vst plugin inside a vst host.
(windows only).
you can now use puredata w32 or w64 with it.
It's still experimental, but you can download and test it here :

@ Lucas
I set the compilation flag you said, and I had to fight with my antivirus.
Now it seems to work fine with puredata w64. Great !
Note that the 32bit scheduler works fine with PurrData too.
