Comment (by zooko):

 Replying to [comment:6 markberger]:
 > With my script the total number of fds appears to remain constant during
 execution when I call {{{ sudo lsof | wc -l }}} from another terminal.
 This isn't the case when running the test suite (as your fdleakfinder has
 shown).

 Okay, markberger. Good job disproving the hypothesis that there is a leak
 in the Python sqlite module, or even in our allmydata/util/dbutil.py! Now
 what's the next step to find the problem? The fdleakfinder outputs show
 which specific files are still being held open after tests end…
