   Are there any performance issues when using multiple pfPipeWindows
on a single pipe ? I realize multiple pfPipes is a "bad thing",
but have not seen any mention of problems with pfPipeWindows.
It is significantly faster (High Impact) to run one pfPipeWindow with
multiple pfChannels than a single pfPipeWindow per pfChannel.
Should each pfChannel under their specific pfPipeWindow share
PFCHAN_SWAPBUFFERS ?
   Are there other attributes that should be shared to optimize performance?
Is there a better way (related to performance) to do
several pfPipeVideoChannels on the IR than multiple pfPipeWindows ?

Thanks,
