Hello performer programmers,

In my application I want to implement my own stress algorithm.
>From a control theory point of view it's bad to use the value of
the control variable to change it's value (stress += stress * scale).
Now I want to find the best place to calculate the stress value
to minimise the latency.
The question is, when is the new value of the channel load available?

I guess it's after the call to pfSync().

Then the code would look like:

   pfSync();

   curLoad = pfGetChanLoad(myChan);
   [calculate stress value, simple algorithm]
   pfChanStress(myChan,newStressVal);

   [some other time critical stuff]
   pfFrame();

Can somebody tell me if this is the best way to do it?
Thanks in advance.

Mario
