FYI: There is no auto-discard feature on the tracker. The only way
to delete items is to manually do it. The "Pending" status
automatically switches the tracker item to "Closed", which is
definitely not deleted. Everything is still there.
This is just a tool to keep the tracker lists manageable. If a patch
has an question from Miller that was not answered for over one year,
I think its appropriate if its closed. Then anyone can re-open it
and answer the question at any time.
If that list just gets longer and longer, then its less likely to be
used.

Hi Eric,
currently there's no low-priority messaging in Miller's pd version,
but there is in the devel branch.
It's one of the features that have been there for some time and i'm
trying to provide a patch for Miller, so that it can make it into
vanilla PD some time in the future. Hopefully the auto-discard
mechanism of the patch tracker will blow up before that time. Don't
expect the feature to be available soon.
all the best,
Thomas

Greetings,
Is there anything in Pd comparable to MaxMSP's defer_low()
mechanism? As I understand it, defer_low() will force a function
to proceed at a more leisurely pace to assure that it doesn't
crowd out the highest-priority DSP operations. In terms of
observed performance, when the function in question was run with a
regular function call in MaxMSP, it resulted in all kinds of
horrible glitching in the audio playback. After running it through
defer_low() everything worked quite smartly. In Pd, running the
function with a regular function call simply crashes Pd after a
few seconds of operation.
TIA,
Eric
