Disk buffer is for audio tracks - storing more of your audio files in RAM when
a "large" buffer is selected. You will lose RAM if you choose this but work
your disk a little more efficiently. This will not effect your EXS24 playback
AFAIK. 

Process buffer - to work at low latencies ( eg 128/256 samples) I think you
might need a small buffer setting - if you are getting crackles try smaller. At
larger latencies you might get more out of your CPU choosing a medium of large
Processor buffer. 

There are a lot of variables in play though if you are running a bunch of 3rd
party plugins. I recently had an issue with a plugin which caused crackles with
some parameter settings unless the processor buffer was set to Small. This was
fixed after some correspondence with the developer.

You could simply try the different settings on a tune -- one where the
processor is maxing out -- and see if you can get a bit more out of it on one
setting compared to another. 

You could do a search of the list archives to find some more discussion of this
stuff but I haven't seen much myself. There is a paucity of info from Emagic on
anything like this.
