That is because pd-l2ork does moving of objects using tcl/tk tags which 
is *much* more efficient than trying to redraw them on every gui update, 
particularly GOP objects. On my netbook (Atom) things are as smooth as 
butter because of this, whereas they used to make larger patches 
literally unresponsive.
