Descriptive Problem Summary:
When many animations are created and destroyed with great frequency, sometimes the map may stop updating or Dream Seeker may crash.

When does the problem NOT occur?
If the Appearances animations are not reused frequently, the problem does not happen. This only occurs when Appearances are created frequently enough to trip the garbage collector, and are subsequently used in an animation without the server realizing the Appearance must be resent.
