The other (obvious) option is to keep the data and reinsert it into the buffers, but that's difficult because of potential rate changes and other things affecting both buffer sizes and what you're expecting to do with the data after the reconfiguration. > What about blocks other than "those blocks", that is, buffers in > connections that are _not_ modified by a given reconfiguration?

(I believe; Johnathan wrote that code, but this is my recollection of a) how it's supposed to work and b) how it looks to behave when I've looked at that portion of the code. It also agrees with your observations.) Seems like you could disconnect the entire flowgraph and reconnect to make sure all data is getting flushed and you should maintain sync that way. It might sound like a big hammer, but it'd be good to know if that works. Tom
