Hi,
There was a thread on LAD two years ago, almost exactly, pointing out
the denormal problems in TAP's EQ plugins:

Unfortunately the problem was never fixed. Many people are still having
issues with 'TAP Equalizer' and 'TAP Equalizer/BW', as there are recent
posts in ardour-users regarding spiralling CPU usage for DSP.
I've been doing my best to debug and fix the problem, but now that I
actually want to reproduce the problem, I can't!
you'd better make sure you turn off Ardour's denormal protection if you
want to duplicate it. This was added to 2.0.3 IIRC.
