As far as I understand it, Pd only does the 20% idle thing when its not really doing anything. So if Pd is working hard, it'll stop spending 20% of the CPU idling.
It's not a real idle thing, it's a 20 % usage reported by 'top' while the user assumes that Pd shouldn't be doing anything. For example, you open pd, open no patches, and then 'top' reports 20 % usage and the computer gets a bit warmer than when Pd is not open.
Can anyone run Apple Shark on this, so that we know what it is doing when it's doing that ?
