;) Cool - thanks for the pointer. In fact MAXFDS is set to 4096 in the Makefile. I've altered it to 1024 and policyd now only uses 12456kB. 1024 should be more than enough slots for my use but we'll see... Any particular reason it was increased to 4096 in the Makefile? Did someone find 1023 wasn't enough or was it to be 'on the safe side'?
