Is there any way to periodically flush a sound object to a disk file, in
incremental portions?  The - writeSoundfile:sfname method only writes the
whole file, and in a case in which you are creating a long soundfile, and
merely do this at the end you would end up with nothing if you killed the
job before it was done.  There is undoubtedly a certain efficiency in
using virtual memory but in certain cases it is important to be able to
save as you go.
