I can see the use for memory sharing, especially in a sequencer with multiple DSSI fluidsynths, which I assume will mean different instances of everything. What comes to mind is mmaping the soundfont file and then "stream" from the mmaped file - that will make the OS do the job for us. I don't know Whether it will do the job good enough though. Btw, if we plan to depend on libinstpatch, perhaps the effort (if we make one) should be made there. // David _______________________________________________ fluid-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/fluid-dev
