I left my patch working all night and while in the morning it was working well (as I could infer listening to the produced music) Max was not responding anymore.

Did anybody have this problem before, and you have any idea how to fix it?

PS the CPU was running very, very high, like 120%. And I - unfortunately - did not check the RAM to see if that was the problem, my bad.

So would it be compatible with very low RAM (i was using sampled instruments with vst)?

First time it happens to me.

I'm running Max7.0.1 on a 2 month old MBP 16 gig ram and for the 1st time in 10 years of max using, Max7 froze my laptop. The mouse was not responding. It seems that it is MSP. I was just tweaking some values and boom.

btw, sorry to hear your freezing: it may be a glitch/bug on early releases, keep updating and report how that happened to Cycling, if you can replicate.

As for my case, I'm still working with Max 6, and I'll wait a little before jumping on the next release.

When your are dealing and tweaking with a big years-old patch, as in my case, there are too many variables for it to crash, so I better stick to the latest stable release for a few months before upgrading!

Hi PHIOL,
I like your account's picture ;-)

hmmmm. Could it somewhat be linked to the new authorizing scheme ?...

don't know for PHIOL, but I'm still using Max 6, thus no affected by new auth scheme...
