Re: [Sc-devel] PsyCollider 3.2 RC1

Also, small detail but I think the server is not reporting its CPU use
accurately. Baseline on my machine (Task Manager) is about 1% -
running a simple piece pushed the Task Manager CPU use up to 12-14%
but the server window showed 0.1% throughout.

On the plus side, I could run the piece without changing the code
except for one minor thing wrt Document paths. So that is a HUGE step
forward for cross-platform compatibility and Windows. Great work!!!
