i'm not concerned about the allocation of only a few bytes, but
of larger sample buffers, bigger than a few kb ... this may cause the
dsp to stutter ... if we have this memory already allocated, it's
already represented by physical memory (if we use memlocks) so we would
only have to assign a pointer from our memory block(s)...

cheers... tim
