this is known, and i _think_ it is a bug, but read on.

i do not hope so.
at least i would not rely on it at all.

the good thing about it is, that pd doesn't need to rebuild the 
dsp-chain each time a new ~-object is created. while this might look bad 
when you are just adding 1 or 2 objects, it is a real _feature_ if 
you're adding a lot of object~s at a time;

so i'm not sure about this behaviour being a bug any more. (like i have 
been 10 lines ago)

the only (imo) bad thing is, that with the "pd dsp"-messages you are 
forcing pd to rebuild the whole dsp-chain,
it would be (again: imo) better, if you could just send a message to the 
subpatch to rebuild the dsp-chain there (like the loadbang thingy).
while in fact this would produce the same result (rebuilding the entire 
dsp-chain) _now_, it might be a good to be already around if we finally 
have segmented dsp-chains (the things grrrr and krzysztof are dreaming of)
