I don’t know the physical memory size on aquaero, but when talking about storage memory limitations I would estimate you could fit roughly a hundred power/temperature curves into a single megabit. RAM shouldn’t be an issue either, as you look at memory usage of an active running SpeedFan and it’s in a much more complicated OS environment. I should note that I’m not a coder and mainly using common sense.I think that you need to look at the Virtual temperature sensors in Aquasuite.
Remember that even though you setup the Curve Controllers in Aquasuite, they are actually implemented in the Aquaero itself, and operate when Aquasuite is not running.
The Aquaero has memory limitations that would prevent 15 Curve Controllers.
After using the Aquaero6 XT in two of my builds over the past year I find that there is nothing on the market that has all the capabilities of the Aquaero/Aquasuite combination.

I'm using an Aquaero6 XT on my last two full water cooling builds, and have spent many hours exploring the Curve Controller function, Virtual Sensors, and Software Sensors (aida64, HWInfo, etc.).Only one curve controller is needed in a water cooled system. One that is based on Air to water delta temperature. The unique ability of the Aquaero to create virtual sensors based on the difference between two physical sensors makes this possible.

The Core Temperatures and Package Temperature can change drastically in a short period, as visible by a program like aida64.The core temps can zoom up and down while browsing the internet so fans would be shifting speed constantly. All the while the water they are cooling hasn't changed temp.
Yeah, and simply using water temp is an even more average increase and decrease. The CPU is cooled by the water, the water is cooled by the fans. If the water isn't changing temp the fans aren't affecting CPU temp.The Core Temperatures and Package Temperature can change drastically in a short period, as visible by a program like aida64.The core temps can zoom up and down while browsing the internet so fans would be shifting speed constantly.

Using an actual temperature probe on the CPU mitigates this. It reacts more to an average increase or decrease.

Its a nice image to have of a CPU glowing warm while heat slowly trickles, eventually into the water, but there is a reason we use copper blocks and thermal paste. It happens very fast, and CPU temp is locked to water temp. The CPU doesn't warm up and then cool back down when the water temp is finally affected and fans kick in.
There may be many theories about lots of things but in most cases that does not make them all equally valid or realistically useful.
It doesn't matter how speedily fans are controlled, they only affect water temp, and only water temp affects CPU temp. While ever water temp changes slowly , and by definition the cooling that is applied to the CPU, then changing fan speeds faster is pointless. You can't pre-emptively cool it ... only control the rate it warms. The end result temps will always be the same unless the fans spin faster and noisier ... its just a matter of the speed of transition.
Say the CPU temp sensor suddenly jumps by 10C ... if that controls fan speed then the fans spin up. So what happens then? does the water drop in temp? No, it can't because it is always bound by how close it is to ambient. So the water just warms more slowly because the fans are running up to speed already. But the cooling applied to the CPU is the same water temperature it is either way. The Water temp and the CPU temp with it, simply moves more slowly to the same max air/water delta end result.
