I still haven’t ‘upgraded’ to 6 yet; with my system that would be akin to putting twin exhausts on a Clio:

Max 5.1.9
Vista (how we miss XP)
1.6 dual core
generic soundchip (ASIO4All)

but it probably depends also on what you are doing. if you can use gen~ in
6 to biuld a reverb, the performance difference between the runtime and its
basic objects of v. 4 and 5 do not matter anymore.

bad thing is version 4 had no presentation mode, so i guess to stuck with version 5. gen~ is not much of use for me, i do 95% of all the audio processing externally and use max for recording/sampling, sequencing and jitter.
