I just want to know if it possible that max 6 is in some way much faster?

I am working on a quite big patcher for some years now and of course i quite know how it behaves.

It seems it is really faster, sounds better and consumes less cpu?

Is this possible? Suspicious. don't like max 6.. no just kidding, unbelievably great.

We've made a lot of performance improvements for 6.0.2, so it's quite likely your patch will run faster. Nice to hear!

THanks for all this! i am referring to a difference between max 5 and 6.0.2 and was really worried if i should even buy the update because peaple were complaining about performance loss..

It also seemed logical that switching from 32 to 64 bit msp would cost lots of performance.. im happy

On my Mac, Max 6.0.2 uses around 100% of CPU when launched even if no patches are opened.

The weird thing is that the CPU usage falls down to around 6% when I make a new patcher window.

Wes,

The Max Database starts up and refreshes when you start Max.

You can find out if this is causing the CPU use by temporarily removing

From your extensions folder, and restarting Max.

It may be that your DB is really big. If you get stuck come on in to support.

Same here but max stay at 104% even after i do a new patcher...

Hello,

You are right. With sqlite.mxo removed, the CPU usage stays around 7%.

I put it back and also can see the CPU usage falls down from 100% to 7% after several seconds.

Thanks for the useful information!


I'm just trying to see if I can get comfortable with 6.0.3 and having a few startup glitches.

I'm a little baffled as to why the CPU shows anywhere between 5 - 10% utilization when I turn on Audio and have no patchers loaded?

This is only the case when the Parallel Processing checkbox is set. If I uncheck that box, the utilization goes down to 0 immediately.
