This is the same concept of mip-mapping of textures in computer graphics.

If you 'mip-mapped' audio samples by generating appropriate filtered
duplicate samples you should be able to pitch-bend up by literally any 
number of octaves without any additional load on the disk and without
any audiable artifacts.

With proper filtering to the 'mip-mapped' samples you should be able to 
get away with basic linear filtering (or similar) which only look +/- 1 
sample or so.
