Hehe, yeah. And I was this close to posting a full recompile
instructions of xorg-server for debian :-) Like this:

  mkdir XORG-512
  cd XORG-512
  sudo apt-get build-dep xorg-server
  sudo apt install dpkg-dev
  apt-get source xorg-server
  cd xorg-server-1.19.3
# change MAXCLIENTS #define in file include/misc.h to #define MAXCLIENTS 512
  time dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -b -j8

Oops, I posted this :)

BTW, while doing this I noticed that in latest xserver they upped
MAXCLIENTS to 2048, but introduced LIMITCLIENTS 256. I didn't check
what that means ;) Maybe the it's better to up LIMITCLIENTS to 512?

@dan.wang you might encounter a multitude of weird errors if you try
to do that. This is rather not a good direction to go in the case of
your problem. It only solves symptoms, not the problem. And also it
is really an overkill, like killing a fly from a cannon. So if you
insist, you only do this at your own risk :)
