My client is finding that in some cases on 32bit systems there isn't 290MB of contiguous memory available and would like a way avoiding prereading the whole strip.
As a slight aside, are these Windows systems? I've run into situations before on Windows where I needed to "rebase" on all my .dll's to reduce virtual address space fragmentation. I just noticed that there's a new handy utility for determining such situations here: http://virtualmemorymapview.codeplex.com/ I haven't tried it yet though. In the past, I've hand rolled my own.
Of course, this is only at best a workaround but I relatively low effort one if it works for you. :)
