I read:
and I saw a big difference. In the Linux system it uses about 0.1% and in the G4 about 20%. Why this big difference ? Should I use a G4 optimized pd or should I tweak the OSX system ? I tried some Gem patches
I think this is a G4 problem (and a little OSX maybe) - on my g4/800 running debian convobros uses about 10% cpu although pd is comipiled with export CFLAGS="-mcpu=7450 -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer" before configure. The developer version with fftw support doesn't do much better either.
