            Bug ID: 1103
           Summary: Allocate memory for music on the system heap instead
                    of Zone heap
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: Odamex
           Version: 0.7.x
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P1
         Component: Client
          Assignee: odamex-bug-reporter@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
          Reporter: grandpachuck187@xxxxxxxxx

The Zone memory heap is used to hold all formats of music data while it is
being played. WAVE/FLAC/MP3 formats require a large amount of memory and
necessitate a large Zone memory heap to be allocated when Odamex starts up.
Most often, however, MIDI/MUS formats are being played and a large percentage
of the Zone memory heap is unused. It would make sense to allocate memory for
music on the system heap with new/delete instead, allowing Odamex to use a
smaller heapsize than the default 128Mb.
