Fast way to test below, I am using it with 512 and it was stable ala the time.



# XORG=/usr/ports/x11-servers/xorg-server

# make -C ${XORG} extract
By default, the X Server installs as a set-user-id root binary. When run by
a normal user, it checks arguments and environment as done in the x11/wrapper
port before handling them normally.  If you are concerned about the security
of this, but still want to run an X Server (for example using xdm/kdm/gdm,
which will still run the server as root), you can cancel the build and set
xorg-server_UNSET=SUID in /etc/make.conf.

# cd /usr/ports/obj/${XORG}/work/xorg-server-*/include
(OR)
# cd ${XORG}/work/xorg-server-*/include

# grep MAXCLIENTS misc.h
#define MAXCLIENTS     256

# sed -i -E 's/MAXCLIENTS.*256/MAXCLIENTS\ 512/g' misc.h

# grep MAXCLIENTS misc.h
#define MAXCLIENTS 512

# make -C ${XORG} build deinstall install clean
