We Could help better if you could be more precise on your system, settings and plugin younre using

To be clear here, there aren't any "issues" in terms of bad performance per say.
Not at least with normal non record armed playback of tracks. Read the original post of mine here if you're unclear. Reaper can play back massive amounts of heavy CPU Diva tracks compared to the other two CPU friendly DAWs on my system. What it does that's odd is it stutters badly if tracks are armed for recording into.
I think I've unlocked why though, Logic only arms a track for recording into in multi input mode if there is a signal. So an armed track will not boost CPU until you hit a MIDI keyboard. Reaper on the other hand seems to treat all tracks that are armed as MIDI input sources that must be recognized.
So hitting a note that triggers the three armed tracks in Logic overloads the CPU just like it does in Reaper. Logic essentially unarms tracks without signal going to them.
DP works the same as Reaper, if a track is armed it's busting up the signal.
Again Reapers performance is off the charts. coming in at 12-14 tracks VS 9 for Logic and 10 for DP10. I was just momentarily confused at to why Reaper is so touchy with armed tracks but they all are really.
Settings wise I get the best performacence out of Reaper with the defaults, let Reaper adjust for processors, Adaptive FX at 200ms etc.
