Hi Guenter,

I actually meant I thought readsf~ allocates memory
for the whole file although I wouldn't need it: in any
case I was wrong because the same thing happens even
without dsp on or any messages sent to readsf~. Just
trying to make a patch with 20 readsf~s crashes pd
(now 0.38 test 10: worth it for the nice console
alone!). I've submitted a bug report for it.

I'm not sure about soundfiler at the moment; it
doesn't work for my patch either, but that could just
be the patch. I'll have another look later.
