They seem to be trying to avoid memory fragmentation: "DLL Unloads: Perhaps the single greatest jitter creator, DLLs (Dynamic Link Libraries, part of all computer programs). DLLs lie on memory as huge blocks that the purified music information must be written around, causing obvious delays in reading contiguous portions of the music on memory" I love the "obvious delays".
