Patcher- More cpu usage than FL mixer and vstforx (in serial config)

The place to discuss issues with the Public Beta release of FL Studio (when available).

From time to time we release a public beta version of FL Studio. This is to test up-coming features for future official release versions. PUBLIC BETAS EXPIRE in order to encourage you to come back and download the latest beta. Please take note of the expiry date and put it on your calendar/electronic reminder system. DO NOT rely on Public Betas for any time or project critical work.

IMPORTANT: When reporting a bug/crash, please attach AS MUCH INFORMATION as you can, and if possible, a TEST PROJECT as well as the steps to follow in order to reproduce the problem. A video of the problem happening would also greatly help. Bug reports will be processed much faster if you follow these rules, thank you.

Hi, I just realized that a Patcher serial chain consumes more cpu than setting the same chain in FL's mixer, or even in the Vstforx plugin (which is like a patcher too).., I setup i.e. 4 Ohmnicide VSTs in serial.., in these 3 scenarios., 1) in the FL Mixer around 21%., 2) in Vstforx it uses around 21%., 3) but patcher uses around 24%., so is this supposed to happen? is the extra load of the patcher plug? I know 2% is not too much, but it's an empty project with just this..., imagine 10, 20 chains like this.. and the extra cpu is a lot more important.

Regards
P.S I've made this serial cause I know patcher still doesn't multithread hosted plugs.

There are some optimizations I still have to do...
