Pd's engine is a single thread, it will use at most 100% of *one* core. Pd's gui is a single thread, it will use at most 100% of *one* core. The communication between engine <--> gui is suboptimal, which might limit things, but unlikely. > Besides running multiple copies of Pd, how does Pd scale on many-cpu > systems? It doesn't.
