i had the same problems while using gem objects some time ago
it was because of text2d or text3d.
and i'm hardly ever running them [0]->[gemhead].
i'll give it a shot and remove them.since i'm using them only as indicators not buttons, that's not an option. guess i could use data strcuturs for sliders, but
you can remove some gui stuff too .
replacing bng by bang for instance
that probably opens a new can of worms.i'll do that!
and use [change] on your inputs to reduce the flow .
good to know, someone has seen it too. thanks!
only suggestions , i don't remember what was the problem but i solved it

hey there,
i've been having this heisenbug for some time and learned to live
with it, but having fixed some real bugs on my patch,
this is the last one on my list and i'd like to give it a go, but
no idea where to start.
symptoms are:
some time into performing (20min to 1h) all the sliders,
messageboxes, dials and bangs sort of get stuck,
meaning they do not change their display state anymore. i can
however still drag and click their active parts
and their output will react accordingly, but none of this is being
displayed.
i should probably mention, that checkboxes still work correctly.
i had hoped it would go away moving from pd 0.42 to 0.43, but it
didn't.
this is 64-bit linux (ubuntu 12.04), pd-extended (now
ubuntu-package, previously
self compiled from git)
speculations include:
from a gut-feeling i suspect something like an input overload, ie
some input
shooting messsages at an insanely high rate, so the element's
message queue
(if there is such a thing) stops passing things on to the display.
i also suspect vjtools/videogrid as it messes with the interface,
but does have a few issues,
like race conditions between thumbnail creation and thumbnail
display, esp if there's
two of them.
hid: usb joysticks could maybe freak out and overload the
interface inputs
anyway i can not see any direct connection between what i do and
when it happens.
re-opening the patch doesn't help, only restarting pd does.
has anyone ever seen (something like) that?
any ideas about how to debug, where to look or what to try?
thanks + cheers,
ub
