Research direction

The report concerns committable after running for several days, but names no source file, entry point, or test. Start by reproducing the long-running process and inspecting how it opens and closes resources; done means the “too many open files” failure no longer occurs during extended operation, with appropriate regression coverage if an existing test area is found.
