We are also combining Performer and ImageVision in our project. Sorry I don't
have the answer to your question, but the word we've gotten from our local SGI
folks (mostly ImageVision people) is that currently it's very hard to mix the
two libs. The intention is that eventually the two libs will converge (or IL
will become part of PF), making the sharing of resources (like texture memory)
simpler, but there's been no mention of when this will happen.

We're looking into using shared memory as an interim solution, but have not
gotten very far into it yet.

Good Luck!
