It's not precisely the same situation, because you don't have to wait for 
the hard disk. RAM-to-RAM copying is usually a thousand times faster than 
that, or better. So, you won't encounter problems at the same size of 
array than for [soundfiler], and the size won't even be anything close to 
similar.
