Subject: Re: [Pharo-project] Don't ask me how to reproduce this one :)

Hi Bill,
I can reproduce this by repeatedly saving without quitting (on windows vista).
I suspect that some face handles are no being closed properly at shutdown.
 
When a face handle is open, then the FreeType library also has the associated file open.
But there is a limit to the number of open file handles - see http://code.google.com/p/pharo/issues/detail?id=1061   for more info on this.
 
When I have figured out what is going wrong in the shutdown, I'll post a fix.
Is there a bug issue number for this problem? If not, I'll create one.
 
Cheers,
Andy

> I periodically see a degradation of anti-aliased fonts, and have no idea what causes it. Given my recent adventures in to startup/shutdown, I suppose it could be due to a problem there?? It seems to be triggered by saving the image w/o quitting. This recent occurance was different in that I started noting that the text in browsers looked different to me, perhaps just that the method name was not bold?? Something was not quite right, but the text still looked to be rendered well. Shortly thereafter, the full breakdown happened with everything rendered in an ugly font. It seems safe to save the image in this state, and exiting and re-loading the image fixes is. Any ideas?
