What's your texture memory usage on the other OpenGL application? If you
ease up on that such that the sum of the applications doesn't
oversubscribe texture you might be in better shape. I'll pass along this
information to the engineer currently responsible for texture memory
management. He's looking at CLIP texture paging anyway.
In general paging out a clip texture is going to be very painful and
undermine some of it's important objectives.
Cheers,Angus.
