Hi Peter,

Glad you solved it!

I just for fun (and debugging) tried to do something similar, importing a 
bunch of flac/ogg/etc files, 113 totals, and they all imported fine here. 
Playing them back all at once was to much for my hard disk.
Playing back 60-80 stereo tracks at once my hard disk was unable to keep up at 
all times, I suppose this is a limitation of using just one SATA hard disk. :D

Painting the waveform, particularly the code that deals with this is still not 
to my liking. Painting the waveform at different levels of detail is well, not 
at the top priority, but I agree it should be implemented. As soon as I feel 
ready again to tackle the waveform painting code, your feature could be added 
as well.
Could you please file a bug report so it won't get forgotten? Thanks!

No problem!
