Hey, y'all -

Anyone know much about the silo reader? I have a multimesh with 256 parts, and I'm running in parallel - as many as 256 processes. Unfortunately, it bombs out in the reader with a message that there are too many files open and, sure enough, each node seems to be holding every part file open, and silo by default hits a limit at 256 (256 parts + the multimesh file, I suppose). I changed silo to allow 512 open files, and that works in my case, but does each process *have* to hold all the files open?
