Hi Davide,
this issue with sound interruptions from soundfiler has been known for years, it' still one of PD's big shortcomings. My workaround has always been to preload my sounds.
Have a look at my samplemapper abstractions for one one to deal with that a bit more elegantly:

yeah, I use them, but I'm still having xruns problems, and I wonder if it is normal or not..
do you get xruns loading a "normally" large soundfile (let' say a 16 seconds stereo wav file) while playing?
I suspect that the sndfiler thread is still too high (i start pd with the -rt flag).. i didn't mess with priorities or NICE levels, I only installed the ccrma rdt kernel and start jackd with -R and pd with -rt
ciao, davide.
