Currently, an array of Reference:To<dspExtension> class instances is cloned at the start of every out-of-place Operation. Behind the scenes, Reference::Able inherits HeapTracked, which searches for the base address of the instance in a std::list ... this might be expensive, and it would be better to minimize the number of new/delete operations after everything is set into motion.
The dspExtension class has been removed from the library. Although it was never tested if this change improved performance, it greatly simplified the multi-threaded code.
