Spawning 100s of processes about captain HOT 4 CLOSED

this would happen if the reload command you were watching for to launch things outputted many lines really fast -- is this with defaults in repo? I wonder if the bspc subscribe call outputs lots of lines as the bspwmrc concludes, unsure.

That makes sense, and I seem to have pinpointed the culprit to pactl subscribe, so...this is might not be an issue. It was leaving lots of processes around in memory though, so something to keep in mind I guess?

yeah, had not considered that problem previously, hm.

so, on start, does pactl subscribe output vary? perhaps in recieving script you could filter for desired output before printing -- that would solve the 100's of unwanted processes if they were caused by misc startup info being printed.
