With that many files, I don't think changing to 512 will help very much.
It is still likely to have to open almost every file when mapping chunks
to memory. You're likely to have 1 in 20 files already open, compared to 1
in 200.
Do you have a reccomended value considering the number of files I'm dealing
with, does it actually pose a problem?
Increasing the max open files limit beyond 256 should not give you any
gains in performance. With that many files in the torrents, the chance of
a file already being open remains practically the same. So keeping the
number of open file descriptors (which includes network connections) low
will propably be more important.
