I like this! So about 75% of the modules are 15% or less load at “average” conditions. And around 90% of modules are 25% or less. Those are good stats to keep in mind. Considering there are two cores, if you stick to this 90% and prefer the 75% group then you can run 8-12 modules at 48kHz. More if you can drop to 32k or 24k.
Obviously this is a gross oversimplification, since there are some must-try modules in that upper 10%, and there are also examples of patches running 30-40 or more modules… but having 8-12 is a helpful mental target when going about patch creation, especially for new users not familiar with the environment yet.
