| Hi All, Just to get some conversation going, I was looking at CS6 today. I decided to run a project of mine that's pretty heavy to compile and ran it with -j4 which caused a segfault. It crashed out in useropcd2, having to do with use of csound->pds. I assume it has to do with that global spot being overwritten by multiple threads. Even if not, I think we need to remove the use of csound->pds and csound->ids to do i-pass and k-pass to remove a point of contention for multithreading.
I'm still trying to get my bearings again with CS6 and am looking through some notes as well as doing some brainstorming. I'll write back here sometime when I've collected them into good list.
Thanks! steven |

| I've been looking at this in Csound 5 and have identified some real problems in the PARCS branch. John ffitch has sent on to me some of his notes on how this can be cleaned up. I've been planning to do just that. I will forward to you what he sent to me.

| Is PARCS a branch now? Last time I looked the code was fully integrated into the production version.

| I misspoke. I know the code is in the main branch, I should have said "PARCS code" not "PARCS branch." Regards, Mike
