[PD] Yet another post about cpu consumption... (for Linux users)

Hi all! I m running into a problem right that has to do with cpu consumption, but not with GUI. In my live guitar processing patch i use the core of Miller's Phase Vocoder patch for time-stretching. It records bits of what i play and time-stretches them. Now my problem is that it freaks out at

Hello, are you sure that your CPU frequency did not change? i sometime have this problem : the CPU slowdown to save some power, introducing audio problem. i simply put it full speed every-time i use CPU intensive applications. i don't know how to do this on fedora, but it should be possible. c

if you use gnome, you can ad on the panel a CPU frequency applet that alow control over cpu frequency. i'm sure kde have the same kind of stuff. cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep MHz give the curent cpu frequency c Le 05/08/2010 10:31, Pierre Massat a écrit : How do i check this? I have a core 2 duo

What's the matter with line~ in a subpatch where audio has been switched off? I think i have line~ in most of my subpatches and i have never noticed anything wrong. Can it be harmful to let the cpu run at full speed all the time? Or is it just a matter of energy consumption? Thanks for your
