> Why not do this only in the if (rlim.rlim_cur < nclients + 3) case? +1, otherwise you're introducing a potential failure mode for nothing. It'd take a couple extra lines to deal with the scenario where rlim_max is still too small, but that seems fine. > Other than this I think we should just apply this. Agreed on the pgbench change.
