I just learned that plugins like the Fruity Compressor and Parametric EQ (When in high quality mode) cause delay and don't tell you. I found out when I was trying to set up parallel compression and I got this weird phasing sound. Anyway, I was wondering if anybody knows how much delay they cause or a way for me to find out myself?

This is covered in depth in the FL manual. Failing that, check this link from the ImageLine website that should answer all your questions;

The delay you're talking about is called latency, and if you're on a PC you can use the VST Plugin Analyzer to measure it:

Thanks for the plug in analyzer, I can put that to good use.

Anyway, I figured out the compressor causes a delay of around 1.45 ms by entering number going up until the phasing went away.
