Ortogonally to that, IMO the increasing numbers of controls in modern professional hardware justify the choice of hash table access to controls (try to imagine a 26 channel hardware level meter that need to be polled 50 times per second).
TotalMix for the HDSP will not do that. Thomas is working on mapping the meters into user space. Its not reasonable to do this via system calls if you want to access them in an RT thread. As a fill-in measure until that is done, I think he created a control that gets all the values in a single system call.
This open a more general problem for generic mmap support for controls, but I think this is postponible.
