That assert happens whenever the preallocated list of drawables runs out of drawables.
So it's a network latency and guest activity issue. The experimental status is more of a "the code is there, it might work for some durations, but don't rely on it" because of this issue. I don't know why it works with some clients better for you, I can only assume that the clients are contributing/changing the latency somehow to create a larger pipe (and as a result smaller free drawable list, until exhaustion) for some clients and not others.
I really wish to get back to this and finish it properly, since I think this is a very useful feature.
