I'm a bit unsure about the -nosleep option. What is it supposed to do? I thought it would make Pd burn as many CPU cycles as it can get. And your mail from 2015 suggests a similar behavior. I run it like this:
pd -noprefs -nosleep -rt -jack -channels 2
and it still only runs at 3% of a core with the [adc~]-[dac~] patch. This is with Pd-0.48-1 (git 3417d9036).
When running pd Pd-0.48-1 with option -nosleep on my core2 machine, CPU load is 100% on one (switching) core. Seems like the -nosleep option does not have the same effect on all hardware.
I just figured out now that -nosleep indeed works, also on my hardware. But it does _not_ when using -jack backend. Can anyone confirm?
That may be an indicator of the underlying problem causing audio drop out.
Definitely. I wonder how Pd is different from other jack clients.
