Hi,

We are running Reviewboard version 2.5.2 in our organization. Off late, we 
have been noticing that sometimes the server starts throwing 500 Internal 
server errors. There are no error logs in reviewboard logs or in Apache 
logs. We then observed that when this happens the number of open file 
descriptors is too high (approx 15k+). If we restart the Apache, the 
problem goes away and open files descriptor count also comes down to 4k+.

While looking at the open file descriptors, we noticed that there are quite 
a lot of them for the file /tmp/reviewboardlog/reviewboard.log which is 
configured as the log file in RB admin's logging panel. At times number of 
such file descriptor goes beyond 6k.

COMMAND     PID      USER   FD      TYPE             DEVICE SIZE/OFF

It could very much be some configuration issue or some other issue with our 
setup. Can you give us some pointer on where to look for the issue?

Thanks,
Viney
