too many x clients on the same ISC host?

Does anybody know how many clients you can run on the last release (not
the one released on man 8th) of ISC unix, (I guess the word "prenultimate")?
I am running a total of about 50 processes (most of them are daemons and
spoolers for a system I am developing), and I have X on the system running
both the server and the clients. What I notice is that I cannot run more than
4 or 5 X clients at the same time the spoolers and daemons are running.
not including x, the system has TCP/IP, NFS - you know, the full developers
system.
Sometimes X reports:
Notice: File table over flow,
when it cant start a client, and other times it gives the message
"... broken pipe from server "??", after 0 requests... blah blah blah"
My system has 8 megs of memory, there should be about 6 megabytes for
the X clients when the spooling and daemon and the rest of the system
are fully running.
Is there a parameter that one can tweak to let me run more X clients?
Thanks in advance -
