Yeah, that paste & repeat option sounds a good idea in deed. Thanks for the suggestion, it will get noted up.

Yes, you're plain right. Current implementation has no support for linked clips. Each copied clip has its own attribute properties and cached resources. Yes, memory consumption is an issue when too many clips are in session, special when those don't overlap and are just plain copies of each other.

A "linked" clip concept would address this issue. Linked clips must belong to the same track and never overlap; all linked clips share the same fade-in/out, file and buffer-thread instances, most certainly in a reference-counted manner. However, unfortunately, all this hasn't seen any attempt on implementation. Maybe it might just fit nicely in this new "Edit/Paste Repeat..." command? Quite on the spot, eh? :)

Cheers
