Re: [PD] Re: new pmpd developer

Hi all, now i had a look into pmpd - it's a shame i didn't do earlier, and it's great! It would be good to do some optimization though - only by recompiling the Windows dll with some different flags and changing a bit of suboptimal code the demo-patches were up to 3 times faster than before.

• in many methods in the source gensym calls are used, although they

generate the same symbols at every call - it would be good to generate these symbols in the setup functions and cache them for use by outlet* calls.

• pow(f,2) is used instead of f*f
• reference expressions are often repeated verbatim, although they could

be replaced by a pointer

• the makefile in the src directory has no optimization flags at all for

msvc++. It should have /Ox /G7 or similar, depending on the cpu
