My database has many hundreds of tables. Originally I set my table_cache to 512. Today I realize this might not be a good idea. By default open_files_limit is 0. According to my understanding of the manual this means each MySQL process will open at most 1124 file handles:
max_connections + (table_cache * 2) = 100 + (512 * 2) = 1124 ulimit -n says the process file handle limit is 1024. Am I correct in assuming this configuration could potentially put the server in an unstable situation? Thanks!
