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.)
per Magnus's request, I set my machine to 25 max_files (the minimum)
and saw no appreciable gain in the number of connections requred to
make it crash (I tested at 400). The first time I ran it I almost
hosed my machine...it was doing all kinds of irrational beeping and
all the windows were flickering and blinking. It did not do this
following the max_file reduction, although I have no desire to run
this test again on my development box ;)
