Yes. I just downloaded and installed it too. Also took some time to read 
the draft of the documentation. Hardly a draft IMO (23 pages).

I guess people are just jumping to conclusions that Linux sampler is a 
dead project.

After taking the time to do this I'm wondering if Linux sampler is the 
project for me. I could easily do some work on a gui. But I prefer to 
work with wavefiles and because I have no midi instruments maybe 
linxsampler is overkill for my needs. The concept is rock solid though.

Buffer a small amount of the file into ram and then stream from disk.

Lets see. I have alsaplayer which needs sample accurate playback and tX 
which needs to stream from disk instead of RAM. Maybe I'll work on those 
today instead.

Although I do agree with Eric that written code is worth it's weight in 
gold.

Apparently upon the beginning of the barrage, the donkey broke 
discipline and panicked, toppling the cart. At that point, the rockets 
disconnected from the timer, leaving them strewn around the street. 
Tethered to the now toppled cart, the donkey was unable to escape before 
the arrival of U.S. troops.
