I increase -max, but leave -cur alone which might not be convenient for you since you run KDE already. My script simply calls ulimit -n 4096 before running owncloud. Since ulimit is restricted to the current shell, only owncloud gets the extra resources. Of course any malicious program could ask for more, up to the max, if it wanted to. Tim.
