Hi, for anybody who wants to try the OpenMP parallel loading, I've just pushed the fix for the vorbis load to use separate file pointers to Toms branch here: https://github.com/FluidSynth/fluidsynth/tree/parallelize-sf3-loading
Hamish, would be great to see how that performs on your 6 core machine. Like I said, I get a little over twice the speed on four cores. And the loaded font does actually play a test midi file... so at least it's not completely broken :-) Cheers Marcus _______________________________________________ fluid-dev mailing list fluid-dev@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/fluid-dev
