Hey Iain,

First off: Im not answering your initial question because I just dont know
the answer.

What I can tell you is that I've used PyGtk as a GUI for a Midi handling
program,
and that it starts to "lag" very quickly. (Im not a "good" programmer, but
I'm fairly sure
I didnt have a *>>> sleep (100) * in the main loop!)

I'd link to that MIDI program, only I can't seem to get the PyJack module
working ATM (strange kernel..!)
so I cant test it to make sure its ok. Ill see if it wants to work in the
next couple of days, Ill send a link here
then.

Especially since your talking about timing, as I'm sure you know, Python is
*not *the way to go for
speed (read: low latency & good timing.)

Hope this wasnt too Off Topic! -Harry
