I'm afraid that's your problem right there. Visible arrays in PD are one 
of the most costly things you can do, especially if they are updated in 
realtime. [Try having a whole bank of VU meters, and you'll get the same 
overload...] Try hiding the arrays and you will probably see a dramtic 
decrease in CPU usage. Sorry...
