[PD] Slow cpu/RJDJ patching approach ...

[danomatika]

I've been running pd on my slow wearable (500Mhz) and, over the last
year, the performance has gotten worse.  This trend coincides with my
greater understanding of pd and adoption of nice GOP guis.

So basically, all of the work I have done to make an easy to use
environment for making songs/patches is practically worthless as the
GOP/gui stuff kills the cpu on the wearable.  Nobody seems to care as we
all have exponentially faster computers each day, which is too bad as
one of pd's strengths in my opinion is it's ability to run on basically
anything.

I'm just wondering if there are others with slow cpu (iPhone RJDJ)
machines and how their approach to patching deals with this issue.

Basically, I have spent a whole year trying to get my system back to the
slim performance it had 1 year ago!  I wish there was a wiki entry
noting all of these issues before I began.  (yes yes I can start one) (I
also wish there was some sort of patching profiler ... but thats mabey
another issue.)

*sigh* I've been getting burned by this for too long and I'm sitting
here replacing gui objects.
