Thanks Glynn. Well according to these values I'm only using about 1500 file descriptors out of the 560178.
If I remember correctly you are using sockets. How many sockets does your system have in TIME_WAIT? You can check this with 'netstat -nt|wc -l'. If you open and close TCP sockets at a high rate you will soon find that you hit a limit here as well.
