On the plus side, though, that update of cairo also fixed a bug which
had caused my X server to "open" many thousands of files (as reported
by /proc/sys/fs/file-nr) when clients like ’zilla were connected.
With last week’s cairo, I had one instance where quiting a dozen-tab
instance of seamonkey meant this change:
:; cat /proc/sys/fs/file-nr
136522 0 65535
:; cat /proc/sys/fs/file-nr
1975 0 65535
With 3fde219487362e1 I have about three dozen tabs open and only about
450 extra "open" files.
(I should note that I use separate client and server boxen. And I put
open in quotes because the files do not show up in /proc/*/maps or
in /proc/*/fd/.)
So thanks for whichever commit fixed that bug!
