Default 7/8 time signature

This is kind of an odd one to me and am wondering whether it's just this session. It had a 7/8 time signature with only Superior Drummer (the latest update) on a track. Through various buffer settings 64,128,256 (i7 iMac with 7,6,5,4 cores selected, no difference) I received constant -6101 errors. Whether recording or playing. The CPU would never go above 15% usage. Now with other session in 4/4 I have pushed the processor to 70%+ with no hiccup. So I switched the time to 7/4 and it's all good again. Anyone had trouble with non-4/4 time signatures in PT 10?

Interesting.... I assume its plugin related... Can you try a session without that plug at 7/8 to confirm??

True but If the plugin has an issue syncing at that time signature it could be a version of the drummer plug or even session related (Like a corruption) or it could be that plugins version has issues... Im thinking more session related though

Must be something to do with the session. Created a new session, same parameters and imported the midi I tracked and used on the original, everything is fine.
H/W Buffer 128, Host Processors 7 (out of 8)
CPU Usage Limit 99%
Ignore Errors During Playback; Selected
Minimize Additional I/O Latency; Selected
Delay Compensation; None
Optimize for streaming content; Selected
