My question is slightly different from Jean-Francois', though I think
it's related. It's probably more of a question due to my ignorance of
using shared memory in the Unix environment than it is a Performer
question.

Is it possible for a separate process to create a shared memory arena,
malloc and create data arrays into that memory, then have the
app/cull/draw processes of my Performer application access tha data in
those arrays without copying the data? The first process would be
created and running before the Performer app starts.
