I've tried some large kits in Hydrogen, and it uses a tonne of RAM to 
load them -- while running the BigMono kit from Analogue Drums, for 
instance, which is about 150MB of sample data, it used about 500MB of 
RAM. I'm not sure how well it would fare with a kit this large!

LinuxSampler streams audio data from disk on demand, though, so a 480MB 
kit like the Salamander is no trouble at all. I've been using 
LinuxSampler as an LV2 plugin within Ardour 3, and while there are some 
problems with the current state of things (GIG files are fine, but SFZ 
files need to be reloaded manually after restarting the session), I'm 
hoping those will be ironed out soon.

Thanks
Leigh
