I've been getting sporadic bursts of file table full on a RELENG_4_3
system. The system is a classroom web server with about 85 active
student accounts. It is running apache/php4 and a few other typical
services, including NIS and NFS (not heavily used). MAXUSERS is 128,
there are 512 megs of RAM, and the system has 2 processors. This
problem has only recently started. The main recent changes are staying
relatively current on RELENG_4_3 and enabling NIS & NFS.

Below are extracts of /var/log/messages showing the (sometimes
mangled) syslog messages and the output of uname -a (sanitized as to
hostname).

Has anyone else seen this kind of thing?
