Spencer - thanks for these pearls... I think I'll explore both options. If the VM-approach works and is sufficiently elegant (and efficient), that sounds like a preferred outcome due to its generality. Dana On Wed, Apr 20, 2022 at 9:13 AM Spencer Salazar wrote:

Hey Dana,

Nothing Im aware of. The way I would go about it would be to write a chugin that can call getrusage and compare successive calls to that against the real-time clock.

Building a clock directly into ChucK's VM is also possible but a bit harder to maintain in the long run, unless it was an official feature of ChucK.

Any ChucK gurus know if there is a way to ascertain the "load average" of a running session?

I'm imagining that a high-res timer might be used to measure the pct of the audio-callback frame that chuck uses during a single tick.

Thanks in advance!

Dana
