Yes, but as it's wishing time ;) I would also like the PD gui to be faster. Some patches, especially those with lots of number boxes, run a lot faster when pd is started with -nogui
this should not be on a wishlist, it should be a high priority! at first i thought that Xwindows was to blame but it's the same under windows. i don't know if it's pd or tcl/tk that's causing the problem, but it's appalling to see a few spinning number boxes eat 25-40% on a 1.4ghz cpu!!! especially when i have pathetic old macs doing the same thing in max without breaking a sweat.
can somebody look into this??
also, the array object is particularly bad when it comes to cpu use. is there a non graphic version?
thanks, cgc
