Thanks for yor message Hans-Christoph !
so to confirm :

Given say 50 presets with each 250 samples some of them read direct  
from disk and others in arrays for looping and so on.
Presets do not need to switch instantly, loading might take few seconds.
But switching a large number of times as installation runs, has to be  
clean though.

Good way to implement this would be :
declare a number of arrays (corresponding to the largest preset) when  
loading the patch
and
resizing / reloading them for preset change ?

(I do not want to choose a bad option from the beginning !)
cheers,
JM
