Any link? a profiler tells you, where the cpu cycles are used ... for linux, there is oprofile, a really good kernel-level profiler ... http://oprofile.sourceforge.net/ > > i am using midi devices myself, using a standalone midi-to-osc converter > > (written in supercollider), so nova only needs to handle osc data. > > but of course one could write midi objects as externals :) > > > Ok, why not.
