So this seems to be a big problem for me, in that it simply refuses to 
open new apps, and find this happens more and more these days. Am I like 
the only actual person to use linux these days that this occurs with?

I've seen reports of this, stating it's a hard-coded thing in xorg code, 
which I find entirely asinine, but seems a reality when using 
Chrome/Chromium that launches some 300 flocks on various things, and 
blows out the 256/512 client count on xorg.  I find this almost stupid, 
and feel I'm back to the days of windoze me having to reboot every other 
day.

Reality is I have 3 chrome profiles open, some pdfs, libreoffice, some 
chrome apps, some file manager windows (dolphin/kde), and not much 
else.  Sort of want to punch someone in the face when I see this - 
someone is obviously doing something wrong, and really can't see why.  
All I can ever think is really, am I the only person that really "uses" 
a linux desktop to see these?

Uninstalling pepperflash, or any flash vermin, seems to have done some 
good, no longer causing a persistent memory leak in xorg/fglrx drivers, 
but otherwise chrome|chromium still seems an absolute basketcase under 
linux, forgetting there are resource limits they should consider 
adhering to.
