CoreConfig now have a boolean thread debug option, when this is enabled,
it prints out the CPU usage of each thread to help identify which
threads are the most CPU hungry for later optimisation
Derived units now use a DLUnit class similar to a DLPak to be easily
stored and loaded, the public API has been updated to either take a
DLUnit object or a Path where it reads the DLUnit from a *.dlunit file
The .dlunit file is a ZIP compressed archive containing two files, a
manifest.json which stores the units uuid, its input signals and its
output signal, and unit.py which is the python code for the unit, the
same rules apply (one python function with a specifically structured
signature) as when a string was passed in the old API
Errors have been added to have a DLUnitError similar to the DLPakError
as the DLUnit class is heavily inspired from the DLPak architecutre
Logging may still be primitive, this will be covered in the next AI
logging sweep to homogenize and clean up the logging aspect of things
All internal and public errors have been revised (GPT 5.6 Sol) to return
more detail without horrendously long error classes, this has reduced
the number of error types but each now carries a reason and a code for
differentiation if needed
PlaybackEngine has been implemented and is functional, core mode changes
what signal descriptors are returned to avoid duplicates, the playback
engine currently discards the derived signals that would be recorded in
the DLPak and derived signals are reprocessed live
Future will require the behavior listed above to be selectable so one of
two options are possible:
A - Derived signals are reprocessed live by the relevant derive units
(current behavior
B - Derived signals are played back directly from the PlaybackEngine,
this requires turning off the routing to the live derive units to avoid
duplicate values
This will also require the option to perform offline processing with
derive units to be able to create derived signals after the fact, this
will likely incur a new 'offline' mode in the core to gate things
correctly, this will likely be useful for heavier processing that cannot
be done live, filters that require a lookahead, or more precise derived
signals using interpolated signals for higher acurracy which also brings
the ability to offline process on a fixed timebase instead of following
either input signal to the derived signal
