| It may, or may not, be an accurate indicator.
But the test I propose IS an accurate indicator, since it DIRECTLY tests what is of interest, namely the ability to perform without glitches.

Mike, I do not understand why you don't think for real time, cpu use is
not an accurate indicator. For my purposes using an actual complicated
and large gigging setup, I think it is the most important indicator.
For club gigs I have:
- my worst case latency I can live with for real time, -b128 -B512
- my total channels, always 6-8 ( kick, bass, and more stereo pairs )
- my worst ksmps I can live with, 64
- my worst case sr I can with, 441000
After that, the actual code and musical limitations are written around
the limitations of my cpu. So if I can get 69% instead of 82% when I am
only using 5 synths, 8 drum channels, and 2 reverbs, it means I can add
more gear, which I would like. On the other hand, 82% is about where I
top it out.
However, I will do other tests too.
