Subject: -41- 1.2 libpf Phase toggling overlapped cull and draw
Date: 8 Apr 1994 00:00:01 EST
When running in the PFMP_CULLoDRAW multiprocessing mode, changing the
phase from PFPHASE_LOCK or PFPHASE_FLOAT to PFPHASE_FREE_RUN or
PFPHASE_LIMIT can cause the application to deadlock.
In perfly, rapidly toggling the phase when running with the
PFMP_CULLoDRAW multiprocessing model ("perfly -m 65540" or "perfly -m
65542") can cause the application to hang.
Workaround: toggle only once every few frames or not at all.
