And just as a matter of curiousity, what OS so generously gives you 30K + X simultaneously open file_handles?

Linux probably does. I've never actually tried it, but if I cat /proc/sys/fs/file-max, I get a number like 300,000. I'm assuming the usual lower limits are probably set by the shell on login... ulimit -n shows 1024 for me.

I imagine, after a certain point, having that many open file handles is counter productive, but I could be wrong.
