[PD] Portaudio question/problem

[cgc]

hi

is anyone else having audio clicks and pops in pd when moving windows 
or the mouse in OSX?  i'm not sure if it's related to portaudio or 
not.  just for fun i ran the portaudio test suite and everything was 
ok, no glitches while moving windows etc.

some info in case anyone is curious:

PortAudio Test: output sine wave. SR = 44100, BufSize = 64
PortAudio on OS X - Latency = 384 frames, 8 msec*
...
numSines = 104, CPU load = 0.811689
Test finished.

Number of devices = 4
---------------------------------------------- #0
Name         = Built-in audio controller
Max Inputs   = 2, Max Outputs = 0
Sample Rates = 44100.00,
Native Sample Formats = paFloat32,
---------------------------------------------- #1 DefaultInput
Name         = iMic USB audio system
Max Inputs   = 2, Max Outputs = 0
Sample Rates =  8000.00, 11025.00, 22050.00, 44100.00, 48000.00,
Native Sample Formats = paFloat32,
---------------------------------------------- #2
Name         = Built-in audio controller
Max Inputs   = 0, Max Outputs = 2
Sample Rates = 44100.00,
Native Sample Formats = paFloat32,
---------------------------------------------- #3 DefaultOutput
Name         = iMic USB audio system
Max Inputs   = 0, Max Outputs = 2
Sample Rates =  8000.00, 11025.00, 22050.00, 44100.00, 48000.00, 
88200.00, 96000.00,
Native Sample Formats = paFloat32,
----------------------------------------------

this is all on a g3/400 powerbook.

*yeah that's 8msec latency with a $30 USB imic and no OS tweaking at 
all.  i think it might be lying about the 96khz output part.
