Andrei Kulakov <[email protected]> added the comment:
It seems reasonable to add a paragraph like:
If a large number of file descriptors are created, your program may run
into a per-process limit. You can avoid this issue by closing file descriptors
with :func:`os.close`.
I also noticed that `mkstemp` doc refers to file handles, but links to
`os.open` which uses 'file descriptors'. It may be good if along with this
change, existing text was updated to refer to 'file descriptors'.
