I wondering if anyone can help with this problem.

My Max patch, mainly Jitter, seems to get more and more sluggish when in the background responding to basic OSC commands from another program. 

The OSC commands are dynamically loading different Jitter FX into a one bpatcher. 

The changes start to slow down gradually but this is rectified if I bring the Max patch to the front of the desktop?

I'm using Max 7.3.4 and 10.12.5 Sierra on a MacBook Pro.

Any suggestions?

without seeing an example patch, i'm just guessing. are you drawing with a visible jit.world/window? possibly set @visible 0 on the window?

Yes you are correct, I'm outputting through Syphon.

I've discovered tho' that disabling App Nap did the trick, check attachment.
