It's under Single Sample Mapping under Options, Split Samples When 
Exporting. (It's up to v2.9 now, try updating, perhaps you don't see this 
feature because of that.)

What this does is when you convert a folder of .wav or AIFF files to EXS, 
it takes the Threshold (to determine what "silence" is) parameter and the 
Time (amount of time of silence to qualify) parameter to determine where 
the data slices occur. It then treats those slices as separate pieces of 
data and splits them into separate .wav files.

I just took a CD Audio which had on the average 5 samples per track (about 
500 samples total), ripped it into 99 .wav files (001.wav, 002.wav, etc.), 
and took that folder and converted it into EXS. The resulting .exs files 
referenced newly created files - 001 01.wav, 001 02.wav... which represent 
the slices. This all took about 3 minutes.

There's other utilities that do this, even within Logic, but this is nice 
because it does it on the fly and makes the EXS file and references it all 
in one operation.
