hi Thomas,
sorry for a delay -- I have just returned from Cieszyn, after presenting Pd and cyclone to what turned out to be a gathering of polish maxers. Most of them seemed quite excited about a prospect of rendering (parts of) their stuff cross-platform, but all complained over tcl/tkish look and feel...

How did you deal with operations on long buffer sizes... are they granular and how did you solve the retriggering? By clock tick?
I did not deal at all -- any operation is performed in an unbounded time. That is mainly due to my old csoundish habit of first precomputing or preloading function tables, then keeping such `pool' in a more or less frozen state during performance.
What I would like to add to vexing in the first place is a sort of explicit lazy computation. But I want it simple, and it is really unlikely that vexing will ever be granular, or even threaded -- this is vasp's domain.

It would be really great if a PD signal chain could be used for filling buffers faster then real-time.
yes, even if it looks like a very tricky feature to design...
