If you're interested in doing this on Linux, go read
/usr/src/linux/Documentation/proc.txt.  You can set the maximum number of
file descriptors for the system (the default is 4096), but to increase the
max per process (I think that's right) you have to modify the kernel (the
default is 1024).  Instructions are in that file (look for file-nr and
file-max).
