Why locate memory for that? why not use a tag-file. Max creates a tag-file 
for external protocols anyway. And again, 32 files is not all that much, why 
not 64 or 100?

Yes, I agree, but then it would not be a Maximus problem.

At least the number could have been made configurable. But It's okay, I see 
I'm the only one having problems with this, my users shall have to live with 
it.
