Hello all.
	
Early 2008 STEIM added junXion support for Wiimotes and Audio Input.  
With this new version of junXion some users experienced higher CPU  
loads. Here are some tips concerning these issues:

     * When setting the amount of Wii Inputs in junXion's preferences  
to 1 or more, junXion will constantly check if a Wii tries to sync  
with it, thus using extra CPU time. If you are not using a Wii in your  
setup, set this preference to 0.
     * When the Audio Inputs are enabled in junXion's Preferences, the  
program is continuously analyzing the audio source's input signal,  
getting an audio envelope signal and pitch detection signal per input.  
This eats up considerable CPU time, so if you are not using audio  
inputs, disable this setting.
     * When you are not using the Quicktime synth, disable it, since  
it will also save you some CPU time.
     * In general, when you have 'analog' input sensors connected to  
Actions that send out MIDI continuous control data, make sure to check  
the 'only send changes' box in the Action's 'output event' pane. This  
will thin out the MIDI data stream considerable, thus saving you  
valuable bandwidth and keeping it more relaxed for your Midi receiving  
application.

Hopefully this is helpfull to some of you.

Best,
Robert
