I also filled the second modular panel of the main interface today with a "Run Time Breakdown," which basically keeps track of where the time is being spent during the generating process. It displays an entry for the "render time," which includes sorting the note data and converting to MIDI, as well as entries for the structure, progression, generative, and post-processing modules (coordination module yet to come). So after mGen finishes a composition, it will show exactly what percent of the time it spent on each area, and color codes the entries appropriately so that resource hogs will show in less-friendly colors. GGrewve, being the most cpu intensive plugin, takes up about 70% of the runtime in my current projects.
It's nice to be able to see where the time is being spent. It's also nice to not have controls freaking out on my every time I want to maximize the window.
