? Huh, thats why I said "by the way of the os". I mean that the more memory you have (and do not use for more bloated applications:), the more memory the system uses for caching of disk-access. If aeolus is small that is good. Because that leaves more memory to cache the samples (outside of aeolus itself). Arnold
