[PD] Using PD in a non real-time mode?

[Claude Heiland-Allen]

Too complicated, Derek!

Ignacio, just let pd consume 147% of your cpu, stuttering merrily, and 
the output of writesf~ will magically be glitch free. Pd works on a 
logical clock, it hardly knows what "real" time is

For example, I've rendered videos in Gem with sound this way, Pd 
consumed ~10x my available cpu/gpu power so it took ~10x realtime to get 
the output, but at the end it was all in sync.
