Hi, I just remembered a point that should have been part of my answer of yesterday: On Mac the trimming of audio related performance tends to be taken care of by the applications. For example, in MainStage's preferences window you can chose how the application shall order priorities, regarding graphics, when times get tough: 1) Automatic 2) Better Visual Quality 3) Balance 4) Better Audio Performance If you don't use the screen much, like me, you may set alternative 4. But if you wish to use the graphics form important monitoring you may use alternative 2 or three.
