I am updating a cocoa project from 10.2 to the newest version of OS X
and AppKit + Intel. My code used

[NSApp setApplicationIconImage:buf];

to animate the my custom dock icon in a loop, about 20 fps when in operation. This approach now stalls randomly in the latest 10.4.6, resulting choppy animation. This sounds similar to : http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/message/cocoa/2005/9/15/146354

My suspicion is that that the Dock is now doing lazy refresh as an optimization, e.g. this behavior goes away when I have a playing quicktime movie minimized in the Dock.

How does QuickTime Player mark the Dock "dirty" to request a refresh?
What should I do in my application to get the same effect?
