right, this is how pd's gui communicates with its core. additional resource usage from this would be near immesarably small though as its just a loopback network device, so i wouldnt worry about it. the only option you would have would be to run pd with the -nogui option which, naturally, leaves you without a gui.

Hi i noticed a tcp socket between the pd core and pd gui. When a launch my application, the tcp socket seems to be used to update the gui (e.g. all my number boxs etc...). It is very usefull during tuning and dev but useless during a performance moreover it consumes precious rescources.
how can i make it stop during a perfomance ?
