[PD] size of loaded audio to array

Another memory-related question:

When I load an audio file to an array, the array resizes to a certain 
length and loads the audio in mono. Does this mean that only the samples 
which are in the array are stored RAM, or is the whole file kept in RAM?

I ask because I have been using several very large samples for live 
granulation, and PD keeps hanging because it runs out of memory, so I 
want to know if squeezing down the files would help.

thx,
d.
