+Subject: Raise default client limit to 512
+Patch-Mainline: Never
+
+After a while of starting too many browser tabs, I ran into
+xorg: Maximum number of clients reached
+
+which also prevented me from starting a terminal window to debug
+the issue.. so raise the default a bit. Based on 
+
+https://plug-discuss.phxlinux.narkive.com/BWkQ7Xez/xorg-maximum-number-of-clients-reached
+it appears other distros are also doing that.
