Details

We can't run both viewer and apprunner on the same time on mac. i'm assuming this
is because the registry is left open or something. This works fine on NT.

The problem we see is once viewer is running and you launch apprunner, you get
asserts in rdf because it cannot create resources. I'm assuming (again) this is
because it can't write things into the registry at startup time.

The current repository code opens/closes the registry. And that I was thinking
is a performance problem and am going to change it to make it keep the registry
open all the time. FYI.

I dont know why this would happen. Does it always happen ? Like run viewer let
is show the chrome and dont do anything else to it. Then run apprunner. At this
point, the registry is closed by viewer.

Viewer is dead. Apprunner is the only one that lives.
