Sounds like what we saw when we were getting things up and running in 
test, when something would go wrong we got the "hall of mirrors" effect 
of infinitely nested frames.

I don't know if anyone ever tested timeouts, so it's likely we have the 
same problem there.  If it's SP/app timeouts at issue, we might have 
them turned off.

I might drop our local contacts a line to inquire about this (and 
encourage them to open a ticket as well if need be).
