While generally true, I believe there are 2 issues to keep in mind:
CPU power / bandwidth is approaching infinity :).
Some plugins may actually be implemented in a dedicated DSP chip. The GMPI
portion only has to handle control data.

In the film world it is very common to automate 100's of parameters in
"automation mode". In fact there are a half dozen different automation modes
to make this more convenient. I assume that GMPI will support this market as
well.
