I am wondering what is the current best option of using Gem on the Pi 3. Would I be best to use Purr Data? or Vanilla PD? Thanks Jim

i think this is the wrong question.
Gem on the rpi is kind of limited as it (Gem) depends on openGL and the rpi provides openGL-ES (though there *are* experimental (still?) drivers for openGL as well). this is quite independent of purr data, pd-vanilla or whatever.

Hello,
I have tried Gem on the Pi3 and it works. I did not try Gem *completely* because I had no time, but did not encounter major issues other than video capture. I could not use video capture since it overworked the CPU. However, accessing the video feed with openCV (not through Gem) gave *very* reasonable CPU usage (while doing Face Tracking, for example). I am not sure why I encountered such a difference, but I just couldn't use Gem for *that*.
Cheers,
Fede
