i did my test by loading the "All_objects.pd" file (unless otherwise indicated). i used "-stderr" to catch error messages. no other externals were loaded. tests were done on a MacMini running OSX-10.6.8, with Pd-0.49-1 installed in the amd64, i386 and ppc variants. some observations: - the fat binaries don't contain PowerPC binaries (only i386 and amd64) (so they obviously won't load on a PPC variant of Pd) - when loading more than ~140 externals, i get spurious shutdowns. re-running usually make them go away (most often after the first attempt, sometimes it takes longer). i have no idea where these might come from. afaict, i don't get any indication of an error (no printout, no error code). - the following object make more serious trouble. for testing i had temporarily removed the binaries of the problematic objects from the else/ directory (with all the other externals still there), and enabled them one by one: [rec~] -- on amd64, after loading this object Pd will stop to work: the patch containing this object won't show up, Cmd-Q and the like won't do anything (i get visual feedback that the keys were pressed, but they don't actually do anything) -- on i386 i get the following error: ~~~ pd(86904,0xa06de540) malloc: *** mmap(size=2511978496) failed (error code=12) *** error: can't allocate region *** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug pd: getbytes() failed -- out of memory ~~~ [shaper~], [table~] on both amd64 and i386 i get an error > else/shaper~ > error: ... didn't return a patchable object if i instead try to load the help-patch of the object, it seems to always crash (on both architectures) with exit code 139 [wavetable~] similar to above, although All_objects.txt almost *always* exit (with an exit code of 139) [wt~] loading "All_objects.pd" always exits on i386 (with exit code 0), but not on amd64, where i get the error: > else/wt~ > error: ... didn't return a patchable object funnily enough i can load the "wavetale~-help.pd" patch on both architectures (although i get the "not a patchable object" error in both cases. gfmasdr IOhannes
