In Bennos case (outputting several streams in paralel) there is the
obvious case of doing 4 streams in one go.
The downside is that (for polyphony beyond 4 including voice stealing)
assignment algorithms are sickenly hard to optimize and very likely to
contain bugs that only shows up once in while.
