With El Capitan, the best I could do was about 115-120 open processes. Many have suggested that for every 10 processes you can shut down, you should notice an improvement in SQ and there are those on the OSX CAD thread here on CA that have stated they were able to pare down their version of OSX to about 60 open processes but I'm certain they weren't using El Capitan.

With that said, I did find the CAD script to be beneficial and a good starting point.

I have had recent conversations with the owner of Mojo Audio, Benjamin Zwickel, and he personally doesn't like any of the new versions of OSX and I believe he has completely moved away from Mac OS with his personal system. I am familiar with the mojoaudio recommendations which were written years ago. I have not done any comparison testing to confirm that this is true and so take it for what it's worth. Some have suggested, however, that El Capitan, in particular has a very good core audio architecture and better than Yosemite or Sierra and so that is what I went with.

The problem with using a much older version of OSX is that while it sounds better, as software like Roon gets updated, these new updates sometimes require certain processes that are not available in the older OS versions. Based on responses I've received from others, with every new version of OSX (currently Sierra), Mac's OS has become more and more bloated (almost Windows-like) for the sake of a richer feature set which is not so good for audio. I'm not a Mac OS expert but I've gone down this path recently as well.
