Hi Hans,
Thanks for replying. I don't quite understand what you mean by
"manually manage". As far as I know, without something like [pd~],
there's no way to divide up and assign the Pd audio process to more than
one core. Half of the cores on a quad-core are therefore useless to Pd
(accounting for the fact that the graphical process gets its own core).

It would definitely be possible to write a pdpoly~ but usually it
would be easier to manually manage 2-4 instances. Few people have
more than 4 cores. I see those poly objects as useful for 10+ and
make managing 100s or 1000s possible.

Hello all,
I have skimmed Miller's paper from Pd-con about [pd~], and it looks
like it has potential for taking advantage of multiple-core CPUs. I
need to read it in a little more detail to digest it fully, but I'm
wondering (and this is directed mostly at Frank B.): could [polypoly]
and/or [nqpoly] use [pd~] for each voice/replicated-patch instance?
