We're running 2 separate 'perfly' executables on an 8 processor ONYX.
We've bound each perfly to it's own processor using the runon command on
the command line. We also have several other processes running on all
of the other processors. The display freezes for 1-3 seconds quite
frequently. We've tried taking out the runon command and letting the
perfly run freely on whatever processor it chooses. This does not stop
the freezing display. We've cut the frame rate down to 20.0 HZ and that
helped the frequent freezes, but it makes the display more jumpy. Does
anyone have any suggestions on how to avoid the freezing display?

Should we try to bind the Draw processes to their own processors, and
put the APP and CULL somewhere else?

Thanks in advance for any help.
