I _think_ this depends on the kind of GUI element. If you send thousand messages per second to a slider, then it would probably help. But you can limit the rate already now, so I personally don't think that a fixed refresh rate would urgently be necessary. I think arrays can be quite a hog since not only for every pixel you see a message from pd to pd-gui was sent, but for every sample. This can be quite a lot of messages when you change significant chunks of an array. However, a fixed GUI refresh rate wouldn't help with this.
