You're right, it definitely shouldn't be that bad. Have you tried this same test on different platforms, or with different versions of Tcl/Tk? (I am guessing you are on Windows, which I don't use). I
Nope. I am on a Linux box (not literally at this very moment, but I use PD exclusively on Linux). I did try this on 2 different machines with same results. Although both of them were AMD cpus (3000+ laptop and a 4800+ desktop, nicely loaded in terms of RAM etc.), since your test below was on a totally different architecture, my hunch is that this has nothing to do with cpu choice. The two also used two different distros.
just tried on my G4 800 with Tcl/Tk 8.4.15-cvs. I get about 50% usage from one num2 at 24 point at 100hz.
Is this with antialiased fonts? Either way, what we have so far suggests that the tcl/tk is a real hog. With GriPD being apparently abandonware, should one simply use Gem to display data that calls for refreshes faster than 10Hz? To me this idea sounds like an overkill...
