I rely on pfDelete() to get rid of my redundant performer nodes.
You must also set any user data at nodes to NULL prior to deleting
the node if you still need the data.
Be aware that pfDelete deletes everything below the deleted node if
it isn't used elsewhere, to avoid this increment their reference
counts.

I've had similar errors to yours in the past but it's generally been
due to my application scribbling memory or similar mistake.
