the nice thing is that you don't have to use it if you don't like it....

i will not use it because i also prefer the "everything in one patch" : you have less surprises when sharing patches.
(that is also why i think a good patch is a patch that could start with -nopref flag on pd startup)

but i would understand someone that set gemwin framerate at 50 fps because the default 20 fps is a nonsense...
