Another diagnostic idea: try comparing the behavior during loading with audio switched on and off. my guess is: if this is a memory issue, it won't make a difference if it's the computations involved with big #'s of tabplay~, then it will be faster with audio off Chuck On Jan 29, 2008 1:21 PM, Ma

Just a guess... maybe allocating all that memory is forcing the OS to page other apps out. (I'm not sure how much memory is getting used but if it's more than 1/4 of the system total it's possible that is slowing stuff down.) cheers Miller On Mon, Jan 28, 2008 at 04:52:56PM +0100, matteo sisti s

Hi, Suppose I create a [sample] abstraction that basically contains a [table] to store a sound sample, and a [soundfiler] to read it from a file. One of the reasons for creating such a "trivial" abstraction is that it has a GOP GUI with -a symbolbox where you can write and see the filename -a tes
