HI all,
in the 0.25 pre-release (NT only!) the "-adc" flag has been renamed "-nodac" and the "-dac" is now "noadc,", contrary to the usage message that "pd -help" outputs.
On SGI I've only compiled Pd for "o32" so far (my SGI machine is 5 years old!) and would like someday to put out an "n32" version which would run quite a bit faster. I would suggest leaving "pd-gui" in o32 so that it works with TK, and only compiling "pd" itself with n32. The two only communicate via sockets and there's no need for them both to be n32.

dont have an NT box.... although Im not complaining. :-)

unless tk is faster in n32 as well...
On SGI's freeware archive site tcl/tk8.0.x is compiled n32 for IRIX 6.2 and up. Does pd-gui change tcl/tk in anyway?
I wish I had access to the MipsPro 7.2 compilers on a Irix 6.5 (for the new audio lib with suupport for the adat card) machine then I would do it. My machine at home is using gcc2.8.1 that does n32, prob not much faster (if at all) than o32 with mipspro....
BTW-- anybody ran pd - gem on the new NT SGI's?

hi miller
i'm running pd on a SGI o2 (R5000) and recompiled it as you discribed.. (compiling "pd" itself with n32, leaving out t_tkcmd.c and t_main.c) now it runs a bit faster.. is there any way i can optimize it more? i really have performace troubles and don't like to use fts :/

Which system you are running, on our o2 r1000 and irix 6.5 we did:
FASTCFLAGS = -IPA -Ofast=ip32 -OPT:cray_ivdep=true
-mips4 -n32 -r10000 -OPT:roundoff=3 -OPT:IEEE_arithmetic=3
CFLAGS = -w2 -DUNIX -DIRIX -DPD $(FASTCFLAGS)
LDFLAGS = -w2 -IPA
where a lot of improvement was made by the -IPA at compile and link time, could you mail your CFLAGS, LDFLAGS for comparision ...
