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!
Lance
