[Benchmarking] Request to change value on server

[johann sorel]

Hello,

While making so metests on the server I hit an error : Too many open files

When checking the /etc/security/limits.conf on the linux server

There are no override of the max number of open files per process, so 
each process can only open 1024 files before having an error. jvm files 
+ tomcat + server + each read operation in parallale for each user and 
file source... makes me reach it.

Could it be possible to raise the limit ?

It can be done by adding the following lines in the limits.conf :

* soft nofile 65535
* hard nofile 65535

thanks

johann
