I really don't know why some good sounding devices uses less DSP than some crappy devices?
what is the differece between the V3.1 pulsar mixer and V3 pulsar mixer? Why in v3.1 it uses less DSP?

maybe they got rid of some redundant algorithms. also some algorithms can be replaced with far more efficient ones (i.e. to calculate the sum of the numbers 1-100 you can
1.: 1+2+..99+100
2.: 0.5n(n+1) where n=100
where the second solving way uses far less cpu power)
it's not always obvious at the first glance what's the best algorithm, that's why updates tend to be more efficient
