The metronome implementation is quite brilliant IMO and I have cause to use it often and never had an issue with it.
I think Bob might be on to something with his suggestion. http://www.thesycon.de/deu/latency_check.shtml
As to the placement of the BPM settings yes it is a bit odd but as a programmer I can see how if you are 'inheriting' the functionality of a 'track' - a track doesn't have a BPM so they would have had a problem that would not have been easy to fix without some serious jiggery & pokery.
It would however sit well next to the metronome on/off button

Yeah, of course it's something with my computer - nobody seems to have this problem but me.
It's not the end of the world, it's just an inconvenience. I'm not expecting a fix, because I don't think there is one short of spending way more time looking for the remedy than I'm willing to put in. I'm posting this here just for the record.| -

Thanks, emmrecs. "Your system appears to be suitable for handling real-time and other tasks without dropouts." I'll do some recording and see what it says then.
Oh, hang on...it's found a problem. Okay, a-sleuthing I will go. I'll report back. Thanks for the software idea.

I got this problem myself using it for the first time today - stumbled across this thread because of it.
Creative juices were flowing, I began a session start recording to 3/4 time signature metronome and it clicks out of time after about 30 sec - recording ruined. Tried again, it did the same so abandoned the session. Frustrating as I'm a one take musician most of the time!
Don't make me have to find alternative software to use!
EDIT:
I see what is happening. When the playhead reaches the end of the visible play area, that is when the metronome skip happens - it skips back to beat #1 at that point when "making" more visible play area.
In preferences if you switch off Auto-Scroll during playback & recording, this doesn't happen. The problem then is that you can't see what you are doing clearly.
Please fix Adobe.

emmrecs, thanks for pointing me toward Latencymon - it's been really, really useful. Aside from educating me and suggesting things for me to look at, just the whole process of getting into it and exploring possible fixes got me to where I want to be at this point - the machine's running without any dropouts. The metronome's still glitchy, but now I know it isn't latency problems on my machine that's the culprit.
It could be something else on my machine, but it's not latency problems.| -
