Well I was using the term incorrectly, "amortized" in the sense 
the large majority of callback will not allocate, so in other 
words, the opposite :)

pushack_back leading to realloc can make a lot more trouble 
because it moves large amount of memory. Delay lines may need to 
be allocated with a max size / pessimized for that reason.

In game-mixer I had to use chunked allocation to avoid that while 
decoding an audio file with playback, in the case you want to 
keep it in memory.
