ulimit -n 4096 works fine, and it should for higher numbers as well. Could 
this be put into start-freenet.sh, or is it unstable/unsafe? Maybe prompt the 
user with a warning message about memory usage.

Btw, the default on Mac OS X, at least the version I was using, is 256 - which 
meant this was absolutely necessary even without NIO, as the native datastore 
wouldn't work otherwise.
