Hmm. It might not be an actual leak per-se... I've noticed in busy areas
that the viewer will often hit a *lot* of parallel HTTP texture fetches.
I'm not sure if there's a hard limit there, because my texture console
can easily overflow with active texture-fetches. That's... what... 30+
and I'm guessing a minimum of two file-handles each right there (and gut
feeling says there's probably closer to 3 involved).
If there's no cap on the number of parallel HTTP texture fetches (or the
cap is too large), then you'll see more simultaneous fetches for
higher-latency users (as an artifact of each HTTP session taking longer
to complete), all other things being equal. If that is the case, then
it's likely to have a far lower incidence if you're on the continental
USA. Altair... you're in southern Europe, right?
