Yeah, this setup i'm using was created and thereafter never changed (yet). So i guess it should all still be contiguous... Thanks for the info though. I'll see if i can do some tests when i get my new hardware to play with. But as said before, it's probably not even measurable. The added latency that is... Thanks!
