This is an interesting question; a while back I posted something similar and everyone agreed "maxusers" set to a high value would take care of max processes and max open files... However, in setting up a medium duty (2G/Day) dedicated webserver, I was running out of processes with maxusers at 200. When I re-compiled the kernel with params like those below, all was well. Could someone clarify? I'll be building another big machine (news) soon, and I will be dealing with the same issue.
