Hey, A year or so ago we had some issues with file handles not being closed which Larry promptly addressed and we haven't seen the problem again until recently. This time however, the error message is a bit different - involving epoll. From what I've gathered the only place this would be called is through boost.asio and only as it pertains to iv and sockets. I haven't really dug into it too far, but wanted to hit the list and see if anyone could offer up a guess as to why we'd see this type of error when using the texture cache. We're catching this exception inside a very thin wrapper around openimageio at render time. This can be difficult to troubleshoot unless you've got several thousand unique textures at your disposal (which is the case for us). I'll continue to investigate but just thought I'd ask for an educated guess first. I've set the maxfiles for the texture cache to half of what our ulimit is - but the problem persists. I'm using boost 1.43, btw.
I'm not expecting a solution with what little information I've provided, but I'll follow-up with more info and see if it warrants a bug report. -steve
