My program received a SIGBUS: Too many files open on system - this is odd since I did not have all that many files open and the program itself only had 128 sockets open. When I type sysctl -a after machdep.msgbuf: I get a couple hundred lines of: <3>file: table is full <3>file: table is full <3>file: table is full <3>file: table is full <3>file: table is full <3>file: table is full What is happening here?
