Thanks for the quick response Dianne.

I have an activity that uses OpenGL, and if I rotate  at just the
right time, the log prints

W/SurfaceComposerClient(  749): lock_layer timed out (is the CPU
pegged?) layer=2, lcblk=0x420d0120, state=0000000e (was 0000000e)

I basically don't want the Activity to hang.  I'm using a plain
android.opengl.GLSurfaceView.

There are 2 activities involved. A,B.  B is started from A using
startActivityForResult, and is "translucent".  On rotate, both finish,
and then I start A (which might work) which then starts an intent for
B.  If I rotate at the right time, I see the message above, and
sometimes Activity A draws properly, but usually not quite (only draws
some of the screen, or a rotated version of the opposite orientation),
and it seems like B is somehow blocked because of the message above.
Activity B has the GLSurfaceView.

Any advice is greatly appreciated.
