I know, it's difficult to achieve regular results when you depend on
processor scheduling :)

You are right Hans, I can explain better :)

<background_story>
Well I was messing around with DTW implementation, I already have my
external working for PD (which I used in [1]) and will be available to
everyone when I have some quality free time for it (its so much hardcoded
right now, it sucks).
</background_story>

During that I realized I could implement it in parallel via OpenMP,
but tried to compile the code with some openMP directives and it did not
work for the pd_external, it seemed that PD could not handle it somehow[2].
So what I wanted was "an object" to be parallel by itself. Not a series of
different objects. Does anyone ever made an external that itself uses
openMP?

Best regards,
Pedro
