I could not recommend this program more if you have a sizeable sample libra=
ry. Mine 
is over 50GB, and it became a real pain in the butt waiting for sounds to l=
oad in and 
for the program to start (because every time Logic starts it performs the '=
refresh 
menu' function). 

Once I ran OSX Manager, things were back to normal - the loading time is pr=
etty 
much negligable. It's a real time-saver.

Cheers,
