in some caculations for audio (feedback, etc) there can be the creation of really small or really large numbers. these numbers can cause cup usage spikes in some processors when they try to process them.

hi all - i'm having really bad denormal problems on a intel celeron 2.4ghz. pd is from cvs aug 8th. looked around and found PD_BADFLOAT and PD_BIGORSMALL. on a lark i defined them and rebuilt, and even though it solved it for a while, but no - i'm still having the same problem. looked around some more and found those only appear in m_pd.h... anyone know what i can do to fix this?
thanks... the pain! the pain!
