I am all for preventing the leaks. But using FDs proportional to the tree depth seems reasonable to me. (If you are worried about some kind of DoS attack on the algorithm by someone who can build a tree with depth 1000, well, if they can do that they can also create a flat folder with a million files in it.) Is there a potential hybrid strategy, where for small directories we close the FD but for large directories we keep it open?
