      Distribution: cooker
           Summary: No more X ressource after a while
           Product: seamonkey
           Version: 1.0.5-2mdv2007.0
          Platform: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: normal
         Component: program
        AssignedTo: cjw@daneel.dyndns.org
        ReportedBy: npomarede@corp.free.fr


Hello,

since I upgraded from 2006 to 2007, I noticed some memory problems
with some applications. After several days, when the applications are
not stopped, I get some messages such as :

Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Maximum number of clients reached

When trying to launch another x11 app.

Using 'lsof', the problem seems to be located in seamonkey
(which I use instead of firefox) :

lsof reports that the file '/usr/share/X11/locale/iso8859-1/Compose' is opened
in 374
different file descriptors by the seamonkey process.

It seems that as seamonkey is using more and more fds for this
single file, the number of fds used by xorg for the file '/tmp/.X11-unix/X0' is
also
increasing, until it reached the limit of 256 (hardcoded in xorg I think).

At the point where it's not possible to open any new X11 application,
xorg has nearly 200 fds opened for the file '/tmp/.X11-unix/X0'.

Killing seamonkey frees all the fds (including the xorg's ones),
and its the possible to start x11 application and to restart seamonkey after.

Note that I'm not sure if the problem is related to seamonkey, because
I have a bittorrent client running for 2 days, and it now has 224 fds
opened for the same file '/usr/share/X11/locale/iso8859-1/Compose'.


This problem is reproduceable, I just have to wait for a few days
before I can't open new apps and need to kill the application
with too many opened fds.
