If you try decreasing max_files_per_process to a significantly lower value (say, try 100 instead of 1000), does the number of processes you can run change noticeably? (I don't have a box around ATM that I can try to reproduce on. Will try to set up a VM for it soon.) //Magnus ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: don't forget to increase your free space map settings
