My art is all csg spheres and boxes, cones and torii. No radiosity or 
modern features.  I will whip something off. (Maybe I can put 1000 
spheres *behind* the camera).

I never thought of the leak as animation specific, just the act of 
calling the renderer, which is why I thought of Jaime.  Maybe it is 
related to +SF10 +EF20.
