[PD] cpu-load

[Miller Puckette]

Hi all,

In RedHat 7.2, 
I tried Pd 0.35 test 22 with my delta66 (same chip as delta44), Alsa 
0.9B10...  I have an 866 MhZ P3 with Intel I815E chipset...  

I get:

pd  4%
pd -channels 4   5%
pd -alsa   < 1%!

This is both from "top" and from the "load meter" patch which seem to agree.

Typing just "pd" also gives me 4% CPU load in version 0.34-4..

just grasping at a straw, but perhaps for some reason the newest version
isn't compiling with -O6 flag on your machines?  Perhaps the configure script
is acting funny...

cheers
Miller
