[oss-devel] [PATCH] ossxmix - dynamically allocate arrays and other changes

Hi,

IMHO using dynamic allocation for tables that are just few kilobytes is 
overkill when the total size of ossxmix is in megabytes. It just makes 
the code unnecessarily complicated. So I would not like to accept this 
patch.

However what you can do is to decrease MAX_DEVS to something like 16. In 
real world there will never be more than 16 mixers in OSS 4.0 systems.

Best regards,

Hannu
