I agree, but this is mostly NOT true for audio. As I said, I use both, and the interaction style of the two types of editors is profoundly different. > (I am not > convinced the problem is mmap() here, but then, maybe I misunderstood > something). Umm. I don't think mmap() is the problem either. I didn't write clearly. What I was attempting to say was that if I can design my software to use mmap() and sequential addressing assumptions, the entire software structure is simpler than if I have to manage streaming explicitly. The use or non-use of mmap() doesn't change the physical resource availability problem at all. -- Jonathan S.
