Andrei Kulakov <andrei....@gmail.com> 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'.
