[Paraview] Inconsistent client view in tiled-display mode

[Christoph Willing]

When running in tiled display mode, the view at the client is  
sometimes missing part of the geometry.

The effect appears to differ according to the number of tiles in play.  
As an example just to demonstrate the effect:
- with a 4x4 tiling, a simple cylinder with no capping starts losing  
bits of the cylinder when resolution setting is at 17. With a 4x5  
tiling, distortion starts when resolution is 61. I have snapshots to  
show the effect at:
     http://www.vislab.uq.edu.au/research/paraview/missingbits.html

Of course it starts looking pretty bad with a real, more complicated,  
visualisation.

Just to reiterate, this effect is just in the client viewer. The  
rendering on the tiled display itself is perfect.

Is this a known phenomenon?
