Subject: Bug#1483: Ever climbing number of kioslaves.
From: "Dansted" <online () wantree ! com ! au>

Package: kfm (kioslave)
Version: 1.1.1, and 1.1.1-pre2
This is a kfm HTML document that causes a kioslave to go AWOL. It sets a kioslave to \
read a non-existent file, and the kioslave freezes.

</HTML>
To demonstrate this
1) type: ps gaux | grep kioslave | wc -l
2) Press the key "F5" to reload this page a few ( save five ) times.
3) repeat 1, the difference in wc is the number of kioslaves that crashed.
This is a problem because having a large numbers of kioslaves seems to slow the \
system down, and can cause XFree86 to crash with a error claiming that there are too \
many X clients.
Details: I have tried this using KDE versions 1.1 and 1.1.1 on RH5.2, and on RH6.0 \
(kde-1.1.1-pre2, kernel 2.2.5-15 ). It occurred on all these systems.
