    ///     DYNAMIC data variance but that would undo all the benefits of the threading model - having the cull and draw
    ///     traversals run in parallel can yield up to 200% framerates.

    ///     one StateSet we can write to, the second one is currently in use by the draw traversal of the last frame.
