[maxmsp] can an sfplay~ buffer be too big?

Hey Joshua,
Lots of cues (loaded in an sflist~), but never that many at the same  
time. It isn't a sleep issue...all the settings are right in that  
regard. There's lots of activity on the drive when this  
happens...again only with multichannel aiff files. I've doubled the  
buffer size yet again and will see what happens.
Thanks for your input!
David
