Processing is basically a graphical program, and a Java applet, so it is always making a frame. If you want to do pure data crunching without visual feedback, you should use Java, it isn't that hard to do the step...

You have to decide if its worth it or not to do it that way. http://processing.org/discourse/yabb2/?num=1245794206
