You don't notice me making threads talking about how SWS is crashing Reaper. And I've done comparisons to Reaper installs without SWS; I saw no discernible difference in performance.
Besides Glen, you use Windows plugins bridged in Linux. The way I see it, your system is far from "pure".
PS. I don't use SWS for much. It has some functions which get called with some scripts, it has the odd action which is really handy for me, and it has "Auto track color/icon/layout" which I like. (Even that last thing, you might appreciate.)

Cool with me, but do take note that my first post mentioning SWS extensions was in response to your offer for a precompiled version of it. When I said "I have never used anything that hooks itself into REAPER unless it comes straight from Cockos", it wasn't an attempt to talk anyone else out of using them or to piss off the grammar pleece patrolling the groops.
As for the bridged plugins I use, there is no replacement for Kontakt that is a native Linux plugin, and unlike the SWS extensions, I can't live without that. Just try emulating George Martin orchestration with the SWS extensions and you'll see what I mean.
