Re: [sc-users] Individual Synth's CPU usage...
I'm not sure if this is really something a UGen could easily compute,
since it would have to know how long the entire SynthDef graph takes.
and it would (I'm guessing) have to actually outputs its value
somewhere in the synthesis chain.
Not sure if this helps, but one thing I do with pieces is, before
performing them, run 20 of a synth and get an average from that
(divide by 20 obviously). Then in my routines that are creating new
notes (or responding to triggers), I check the current CPU Usage
before creating the note with s.avgCPU . If it is below a certain
threshold, I let the new synth be created.
Best,
Josh

hi,
any clues how to measure a particular synth's individual CPU usage?
i like to add a management to my live patch that can track which
instruments takes how much CPU and can also warn before creating a
new instance of that instruments if CPU would go too high...
if there's none -- how difficult would it be to have like a
CpuUsage.kr ugen?
ciao, -sciss-
