i now have a win32 binary of the type-tagged version of the pd OSC object:
http://207.208.254.239/pd/w32_osc_tt.zip
i ran new stress tests and this time noted the packet rate capability with the graphically active patcher window closed (this took all load off of wish83.exe). the difference is profoundly significant:
with spinning numberbox window open -- 2180 packets/sec -- est. 127000 byte/sec -- cpu load 100%
with spinning numberbox window closed -- 3800 packets/sec -- est. 220400 byte/sec -- cpu load 56%
so with that one pd window closed and not updating those number boxes, my throughput is nearly doubled. in that mode, network bandwidth is the constraint, rather than system throughput (apparently-- as i'm running a 10 Mbps ethernet).
the source (and VC++6.0 project files) will be up there after i double check the non-Win32 compile conditions (this new version is my attempt to preserve the multi-platform-ness).
cheers, ______________________ | b o b f a l e s c h | www.zeggz.com/raf/
