Actually, after going over the audio engine, I'm beginning to think
caching uncompressed textures on the filesystem really is a good idea.
The audio engine currently caches uncompressed sounds on disk, but only
as long as the session.

Don't cache them in RAM at all, any more than necessary. Let the
filesystem block cache do its job. I can't speak for windows, but on
unix systems this would be quite efficient and effective.
