[PD] pd and multi-core processors

[Jaime Oliver]

hey vedran,

pd~ is a way of opening another instance of pd from within a patch.

ideally you want gem and sound on separate instances (connected via udp, pd~
or some other way). each of these processes will use one processor.

nicely enough, pd's graphical interface and the actual process, are separate
threads, so you (or more precisely your OS) might have them in separate
processors if needed.

for sound, you can create objects in faust and make multithreaded audio
externals.

other than that, the processes in a patch are single threaded.
