Okay so the real question still looms. What do we need to change in the the 3.0+ systems so that a single process can have, say, two thousand files open at once. In the 2.2 branch we would just set FDSETSIZE, remake the libraries,kernel, and applications and things would be okay. I am a wee bit confused how to accomplish the same feat under the 3.0+ branch. Any clarification would be greaty appriciated. :) David Langford langfod@dihelix.com >> Second question: Have you tried setting 'options "OPEN_MAX=###"' in your >> kernel config, where ### is something like 255? > >I don't think that option has any effect any more -- config reports an >unknown option and I couldn't see any relevant mentions of it under >/sys anywhere. The limit is just (40 + 32 * maxusers), according to >/sys/conf/param.c, and I don't see a way to override it other than >maxusers or diddling the source. > >-- >Ben Smithurst >ben@scientia.demon.co.uk > > >To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org >with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
