Yes, this sounds logic! I just learned that loading too many libraries 
could make pd slower... for example I didn't load Gem and other 
graphical libs, as I don't use them... This lib's package-system is 
actually a really good solution. It's just boring to load them one by 
one, even more because 0.39 has limited number of loadable libs with the 
GUI (have to enter in .pdsettings to add more).
