Regardless, it has already been determined that directly connecting to
Coreaudio (rather than using Jack as go-between) dramatically increases
CPU load of PD. Something to watch out for!
As far glitches, I have also only experienced this with internal
soundcard. Using the HDSP seems to work better (above problem not
considered).
best,
