I can't reproduce your problem when rendering MIDI files in my Mac. But again, I don't have access to any other Mac except my own.

The CPU saturation I see seems to be restricted to my setup: it would seem to be related to CPU type … but I may be wrong.

I suggest you to try some things, after getting the latest FS from the Subversion repository:

* First, configure it with debug enabled:
$ cmake .. -Denable-debug=yes

-Denable-floats=yes

This will provide more output, which may provide some clues. Another setting that you may want to try is * When running FluidSynth, use the arguments -c and -z to provide larger buffer sizes, and play also with the -r argument trying to match the native sample rate of your audio device, or another. For instance, this is the output in my system when rendering your MIDI file: $ fluidsynth -c 4 -z 1024 -r 48000 GeneralUser_GS_FluidSynth_v1.43.sf2 ROCK.MID

I checked out r 419. I compiled with and without the framework settting. My problem persists. Attached is the Terminal and gdb output.
