Using gallium-nine, CAD software repeatedly opening connections to the X server
The CAD software Altium Designer runs out of the box with recent wine-8.6 builds. Switching on gallium-nine improves 3D performance by a great deal.
The actual issue: While zooming in and out in 3D view, new connections to the X server are made, but never closed. I watch their number increasing by employing
watch -n 1 "lsof -p $(pidof Xorg) | wc -l"
When reaching a total of 512 (~200 by CAD), the X server won't allow any more connections, also suppressing further 3D rendering of the CAD software. Running it with gallium-nine disabled, the number of connections keeps low at a total of 380 (~30 by CAD).
