Greetings. fluidsynth.lua is now at 1.6: http://www.pjb.com.au/comp/lua/fluidsynth.html and http://www.pjb.com.au/midi/fluadity.html now has a fluadity -d option, which starts it running as a daemon eg: from /etc/rc.local. It's now my export ALSA_OUTPUT_PORTS=Fluidity and should get a good road-test. I noticed after I call new_fluid_synth and new_fluid_audio_driver then it starts eating about 7% of my CPU, even though nothing is being input or output, no midi_player is running, and no SoundFonts have even been loaded. I suppose there's a reason for this...
Reverb and chorus engines are constantly running. And then there's all overhead of transferring samples, some of which might be reduced with a larger period size.
