It's stable. At Scribd, we run it on about 50,000 documents every day,
so far without problems.

In some situations, you might see increased file size, due to the fact
that strokes are converted to filled polygons (so with --flatten, the
outlines of lines or curves will be stored, as opposed to just the endpoints
and control points)

Combining poly2bitmap and flatten doesn't make much sense, since both
remove clip shapes.
Here are the key differences:
1.) poly2bitmap removes clip shapes and combines bitmaps and polygons
into bitmaps. The output will only contain text and bitmaps.
2.) flatten removes clip shapes, but leaves polygons alone. The output
will contain text, polygons, bitmaps, gradients, etc.
> 3) What is the maximum number of clip layers it can remove
It will remove all clip layers, regardless of number.
