And now my question, how much memory or cpu cycles does an AUNode or
AudioUnit suck?
Very hard question. Every AU is different, and the parameter you set
can cause the amount to vary widely. In general figuring out how much
your machine can handle is often a trial and error process.
Would a better machine handle more?
Almost certainly. A PowerMac G5 Dual 2Ghz was able to hold down over
150 reverb units (even a PM G5 1.6 was able to do nearly 80). I imagine
that the iMac can't touch those numbers unfortunately =(.
Would more RAM handle more AUNodes in a graph?
This would depend on the AU in use. Although I think the way you were
using the synth unit would use a lot of RAM (I don't know if the unit
shares the memory for the patches it loads, but I would doubt it).

Failure is not an option. It is a privilege reserved for those who try.
