Take a look at you FDs:
(linux)
# cat /proc/sys/fs/file-nr
11730 0 5049800
Varnish works with a limit of 65k file descriptors. Anything above
that will be a problem.

If you are getting 65k FD`S we hit the same problem.
Another tip: if you are running on a 32bits system, thats your problem!

I've never seen it do worker threads not created.
Are there any limits on number of threads?
Apparently there are; thanks for pointing me in the right
direction. I found a C program that attempts to spawn threads and
lets you know at what point it hits an error - http://people.redhat.com/alikins/tuning_utils/thread-limit.c
- it reports that I can't open more than 383 threads. The question
is why. Here's what I've done thus far:
1) Recompiled glibc per http://people.redhat.com/alikins/system_tuning.html#threads
- the definition of PTHREAD_THREADS_MAX is tied to the value in /
usr/include/linux/limits.h so I adjusted that value, installed the
source RPM, rebuilt all glibc RPMs and installed using 'rpm -Uvh --
force' to overcome pre/post installation errors within the RPM
(hopefully that did what it was supposed to).
2) Set /proc/sys/kernel/threads-max to 65535 (was 3000ish before),
no change
3) Set /etc/security/limits.conf to "* soft nofile 1024" and "* hard
nofile 10240" and added "session required /lib/security/
pam_limits.so" to /etc/pam.d/login with no change, per the advice at http://www.mail-archive.com/java-li...@java.blackdown.org/msg15247.html
where the poster indicates he did not have to recompile glibc to do
this
I've tried the same C program above on a few other Linux boxes and
they all seem to be somewhere between 200 and 383 allowed threads.
The first obvious solution would be to dump Linux and use FBSD - a
direction i'll look into in the future. But for now we're stuck on
Linux. Any ideas?
