Re: [squid-users] Problem with Filedescriptors

Add the following to your /etc/system file to increase your maximum file
descriptors per process:

        set rlim_fd_max = 4096
Next you should re-run the configure script in the top directory so that it
finds the new value. If it does not find the new limit, then you might try
editing include/autoconf.h and setting #define DEFAULT_FD_SETSIZE by hand.
Note that include/autoconf.h is created from autoconf.h.in every time you
run configure. Thus, if you edit it by hand, you might lose your changes
later on.

If you have a very old version of Squid (1.1.X), and you want to use more
than 1024 descriptors, then you must edit src/Makefile and enable
$(USE_POLL_OPT). Then recompile squid.
