Description
When Transmission 0.9 working more than 15-20 minutes, such error appears very frequently at message log: "Couldn't create socket (Too many opened files)", and I cant change tabs in Inspector (it freezes), open new .torrent files (Transmission haven't any reaction on drag'n'drop, File-Open and putting torrent to "Watch folder"), open Preferences and save logs from Message log (Transmission crashes immediately). Also speed is reducing more than 2 times. I have 20 transfers, about 70 files total.

There's a night and day difference in the number of open files T has after an overnight run now.

Using r3785 I am getting similar issues. Although I am not seeing reduced speeds, I am seeing a flood of "Couldn't create socket (Too many opened files)" errors as well as random visual errors(the scroll bar like to randomly hide, inspector sometimes renders wacky, etc.) I have 155 seeding/79 paused torrents, totaling 234

"Couldn't create socket (Too many opened files)" is resolved in 0.96 and trunk. It appears to have been caused by creating too many tracker connections at the same time.
One file descriptor has been found and fixed in r3551. I think this is the error that caused this bug, but we'll probably need more users testing Transmission to be certain.
