Hi everybody.

I have just verified that increasing filedescriptors works. The recommended 
value of 4096 may not be enough when you are ISP. I have 16384 now and using 
lsof to count open files shows nearly 10.000 open files. The amount of 
requests is not high about 2.000 q/sec.

Should I increase also the number of max-mthreads under these conditions (4096 
now) ?

Regards
Ales
