Attached are two programs which demonstrate what appear to be two different potential 
bugs in Java3D 1.3b1.  Each program demonstrates *both* bugs, the difference is one 
uses Appearance.setTexture() directly and the other uses TextureUnitState.setTexture().

The setTexture() bug is mission-critical for us, as it would be I imagine for anyone 
doing e.g. large segmented terrain navigation with per-segment texture LOD switching.

The details are described in the header comments:

 * File: MultipleSetTextureBug.java
 * Author: Marty Vona ([EMAIL PROTECTED])
 * Created: 1/14/02
 *
 * Description: Demonstrates application hang bug with calling setTexture() on
 * many different Appearances, without using TextureUnitState.  Also
 * demonstrates a won't render before canvas resize bug.
 *
 * Required files: apimage.jpg, bg.jpg from the Java3D demo/java3d/images
 * directory (must be placed in current directory)
 *
 * Tested on two platforms:
 *
 * Sun J2SDK1.4b3 + Blackdown Java3D 1.3b1 on
 *   Linux 2.4.9-12 + XFree86 4.0.3 + NVidia 2313 + NVidia GeForce2 MXR
 *
 * Sun J2SDK1.4b3 + Sun Java3D 1.3b1 on
 *   Windows 2000p2 + NVidia GeForce2 MXR
 *
 * NVidia "TwinView" enabled in both cases.
 *
 * Bug 1: 25 rotating tetrahedron Shape3Ds are created, each with its own
 * Appearance.  Two Textures are created and are assigned alternately to the
 * tetrahedrons in checkerboard fashion.  Every 500ms one of the Appearances is
 * toggled to the other texture.  After a short time (varies, usually less than
 * 30 seconds) the entire application hangs.
 *
 * Bug 2: Upon startup, nothing is rendered until the application frame is
 * resized by the user.
