Hi Ben, I don't know exactly how the iterator patch is implemented, but I think there are some performance optimizations going on. I think they are depending on if there changes on the inport ports of a patch. If the inputs don't changes, the patch isn't processed. Maybe you can force the processing by having an dummy input where you connect the itorator index to, just as a test. Does this change some thing?
Just my 2 cents.
