Can anyone running a linux and win32 box try to run this example and see if it 
completely drains you 
of CPU.  I have tried it with 3 macs and I can't seem to do much more in PD.  
Also does anyone know 
of a less cpu intensive way to track objects in PD using a mac like 
pix_multiblob does. I would like to 
track at least 20 objects.  My project is dead unless I figure out a better way.
Thanks,
Alain
