Hi All,
	Last week I had an issue with illegal characters ending up in the http responses from 
GoAhead. After changing some configuration options (thanks Alan), the server works, but 
with one small issue. After it has served about 10 pages or so(varies), It breaks and fails to 
serve anything else, though it acknowledges requests through the console. I assume this is 
related to/caused by buffers not being released by the driver?  What else might I look into for 
this one? 
Could a lack of file descriptors cause the problem? 
one of the variables i changed which seems to bear proportionality to the issue is 
CONFIGURE_LIBIO_MAXIMUM_FILE_DESCRIPTORS which was changed from 20 to 100, 
and this seems to be aproximately in proportion to how much was serveed before errors 
occurred (pages which would, in theory, cause btwn 5 and 10 files to be accessed). 
Thanks for the help,
Christopher Wolfe
