I think we all need to learn more about multi-threading if we want to
run real-time, modular, digital signal processing algorithms on
multi-core machines. I, for one, can not think of any general, robust
way to do this. In that sense, Pd's adherence to single threading is
actually a very elegant solution to the problem.

How do you think Pure Data is limited?
for me the only real and important (i can think of at the
moment) limitation is the block-based audio processing.
to me this seems quite unnatural and inconvenient when dealing with
digital audio. it kept me for a couple of years from using pd, though it
is only a 'showstopper' in rather few cases, i found out.
feedback in large/complex patches for example, since it
is not very practical (or possible at all) to re-block
everything to 1...
what i tried but couldn't (yet): build a decent piano-roll
editor (vanilla).
and i believe too, pd has to 'learn' better multithreading to run
adequately on our future machines with hundreds or even thousands of
arm-cores...
