jMAX had decent threaded disk reading stuff
-I think it was only working on SGI machines with 2 or more cpu's. On Linux it never worked.
On the jMax-list at ircam this was discussed, but you can't check that anymore as it is withdrawn from their site. Seems that every trace of the persons who worked on it have been removed. Strange...
