    What is the maximum number of lines one can draw in a single XDrawLines call?

It depends on the server, based on XMaxRequestSize().  All servers should
accept at least 4093 points in a PolyLine, 4092 points in a FillPoly, and
2046 segments in a PolySegment.

XDrawLines points: XMaxRequestSize(dpy) - 3
XFillPolygon points: XMaxRequestSize(dpy) - 4
XDrawSegments segments: (XMaxRequestSize(dpy) - 3) / 2
