I had a similar problem with the 10,000 open files, but this was samba related. What has worked for me was to set sysctl.kern.maxfiles=12000. I picked this out of the air as being > 10000, but the errors went away. maxusers is set at 0, so there seems to be a problem with the autosizing with regards to samba at least.
