Couple of ideas. Flux the bounding box, and update it when you update the
geometry.
Actually, (somebody please clarify), since your geoset is fluxed, you may be
able to just update the bounding box, and not actually flux the bounding
box. I know it works if you flux it.
There is node trav cache stuff that you may need to disable too. Look at
pfNode's man page.

Subject: pfFlux and isect
pfHi there,
I have created some geometry that has to be changed from time to time.
Before I used a pair of geosets for each item - one for manipulation and
one for display. After each change they were swapped. It worked
quite satisfying, and intersection was allways OK.
Due to earlier comments from Angus and other pfGuys I replaced this code
by usage of pfFlux. Display of geometry is still OK but intersection not.
I realized that for each geoset intersection works exactly one times.
After first ->writeComplete() it seems that the specific geoset cannot be
intersected no more. :-( :-( :-( (Sh..! I have been so proud to have a
clean, MPsafe code now.)
Do I miss something?
Comments, ideas are very welcome.
(Deadline for software was this night and I'm a little bit in hurry.) :-(
pfRegards,
Dirk.
