I have kind of a strange problem and I thought, maybe someone else had something similiar in the past and can point me in the right direction:

Im working on a large (commercial - cant share the patch sorry) project right now. The patches works fine, not more than 2% system CPU used, audio status 10% cpu at maximum and everything works smooth. 

The patch mainly uses some input movement data to trigger and manage play~ objects, so nothing fancy really.

But as soon as I close the patch, max freezes - not always though, only ~ 70% of the time - and I have to force-quit it. Happens in Max 7 aswell as 8, so it looks like the mistake is on me.

Maybe someone an idea what it could be? generating a stack overflow on quit or some audio problem, where a play~ cant reach a buffer anymore? I know its kind of vague without any patches to look at, but I thought maybe someone had a similiar issue in the past and could help me out :)

Dear Maxers,

Did you ever find the solution to this? I just got a brand spankin new macbook and a sizable patch of mine is doing exactly what you described.

I don't have any real sense of what your patch was about, but oddly enough mine is also built to process movement data, from mimu gloves. (But the freezing doesn't have anything to do with the input, because Max freezes on closing when I don't have any input coming in at all.)

Thanks a million if you get this.

sadly I can't really help you, I think it just went away at some point (maybe some driver issue?)

I think at one point i had some bpatchers that made trouble (don't know if you have any?), but can't really remember now, sorry ;(
