Sorry, I meant to include the launchctl output as well:

$ launchctl limit
	cpu         unlimited      unlimited
	filesize    unlimited      unlimited
	data        unlimited      unlimited
	stack       8388608        67104768
	core        0              unlimited
	rss         unlimited      unlimited
	memlock     unlimited      unlimited
	maxproc     709            1064
	maxfiles    1024           1024

(Note, this is after applying his suggestion of 1024.
