"Too many open files" #8

Closed melyux closed 3 years ago

melyux commented 3 years ago

Running fatrace with --filter=W results in this error after a few minutes:

fatrace: read: Too many open files

Looks like this was reported before on the other repo (what is the relationship of that to this repo?), and it still exists in the latest master of this project. I applied the patch that someone mentioned in the comment on the other issue, and it seems to work so far.

Thanks! I applied the patch, this makes perfect sense. I'll do a 0.16.3 release now.
