[PD-dev] strange behavior of [metro 98.5] for [tabwrite~] into visual array

At arraysize = 4352 I get animation for the full range of the slider

At arraysize = 4353 I get frozen array for full range

Of course if I try to  move the number box down with arraysize at 4352
I get freezes.

Changing to polygons or points doesn't change it.

In general there's nothing special about the98.5 rate.  For arraysize=n
there's obviously an update rate x under which it no longer sends updates,
and I guess for the size you chose that's it.

How does other software like Supercllider deal with scope updates?
