Hi

I wonder what the recommended way for LV2 plugs is? Should plugs use 
mlock/munlock to lock data into ram which needed during rt-process, or 
is that contra-productive for the host?
For example it could make sense to lock up wave-tables or similar data 
and function calls, to avoid page-faults. But on the other hand it makes 
no sense when therefore other plugs which didn't use mlock to lock there 
data, get page-faults.

any opinions ?

greets
hermann
