        Currently I'm using Fop 1.0

        The only thing I really can tell is system load - more users and in the 
application for much longer times.

        I've only seen it rendering to AWT, but I may have missed it going to 
PDF, that is used less often.  The application is a swing app, not an online or 
web app.  So the fop generation, rendering, and display are all in one jvm for 
each user.  That one user will occasionally see the error.  Fop is used for 
many reports in the app, but the most common is for invoices in a POS app, they 
are the ones that generate and open for display automatically after a 
transaction is completed.
