I am writing a multithreaded application (using MIT pthreads 1.6) that
MUST have thousands of open files, and nearly 4000 open sockets. I'm
getting this error when I try to accept on this many sockets:
error on accept: Too many open files in system
I set CHILD_MAX and OPEN_MAX to 4098 in the kernel, and I can't find a way
to get accept to open any more sockets. Any ideas?
Andy
