Sounds like an fd leak; I'd grep around for open() calls, and see if any were missing a close in if the open fails. You can get some hints at what's been opened by looking in /proc/$pid/fd -- there'll probably be a bunch of things open to the same file. ------------------------------------------ 9fans: 9fans Permalink: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/T4e8db4c94a81d90f-M2566e1904de66c83d87cac3d Delivery options: https://9fans.topicbox.com/groups/9fans/subscription
