Ulimit and File-max value.

["Logu" <logsnaath@xxxxxxx>]

Hello all,
I am using squid-2.5.STABLE12 in FC4 with kernel version 2.6. i have a 2GB 
of RAM in my machine. I frequently get error message saying running out of 
file Descriptors. So i am planning to recompile squid by increasing the 
file-max and setting ulimit. I am not clear what value should I set for 
them. I am planning to assign 32768. What are the drawbacks if I set it to 
very high value.

Thanks
