I don't work for Adobe and don't know 100% for sure how they're doing things, but I think I have a pretty good clue. I've added comments to the bug based on what I found, but figured it would be useful for others if I commented here as well. From my digging, it appears that the limit to 8 LocalConnections is due to the way OS X is configured and how LocalConnections work (or appear to work). It looks like Adobe is using shared memory for the communication to take place. By default, OS X only allows 8 shared memory segments per user. You can change this setting and I have confirmed that increasing the number of shared memory segments per user results in more LocalConnections succeeding. Adobe still definitely has a bug since they're not bubbling up any error when they exceed the number of allowed segments though.</p>chris_fTue, 04 Nov 2008 16:54:47 -0000
