Hello Hans-Peter !

The failed assertion verifies that CULL is not running on the same frame
twice. When failed during the run of an application, it means that the CULL
process wakes up and sees an old frame waiting to be culled.

Can you provide a little more information about your application ?

What pfPhase do you use ?
What multi-process mode do you use ?

Do you use any synchronization primitives (e.g. semaphores, locks) in your
application code ?

Can you make this assertion fail with a small piece of code (not the entire
application) ?

Thanks,
-yair
