I read thru this and about 7 related bugs. Incremental improvements have
been made however there doesn't appear to be any "silver bullet" solution
that's going to just fix this one permanently. I do want to assure you that
this issue is getting engineering time.

Only if you have additional information that you believe our engineer's
might find helpful. I suspect however that our engineers do have a good
understanding of the problem. In any case if you do file a new bug then
please mention the above bug at so that we can associate these bugs and the
engineer(s) responsible for these bugs can share the information.
