Hi HC,
It actually can slow down or jam up my entire OSX desktop as well, which is an even bigger bummer. Sometimes this effect lasts even after quitting PD, requiring a restart.
This is most likely due to the elevated pthread priority hack Pd uses on OSX. Setting the -nrt flag should bypass that, but it should probably be removed altogether.
The effect lasting after Pd sounds like the Pd process is not killed after the Wish GUI quits. There is nothing Pd can do while it's not running to affect the OS.
