socket: too many open file descriptors (Re: Python with many threads)

2008-12-17 Thread Ott Köstner

Hello,

Answering my own mail ;)

The frequency of these messages increases with 70 threads. And with 
200 threads the system locks up totally -- almost no access from web. 
[I can still access the system and kill the process :)  ]


Clearly, there is some limit in the system. It is not memory, cpu or 
bandwidth. If the number of threads is also not limited, it must be 
something else. What might it be?


Eventually, I found out that the limiting factor here is named, not 
capable of handling more request and causing Apache to lock up.


But now I am trapped here. Is there anybody who can help?

In /var/log/messages:
named[63198]: socket: too many open file descriptors

I have googled this, but no help. Recompiled bind, adding 
-DFD_SETSIZE=2048 to CFLAGS. No help.


sockstat |grep -c named

does not big numbers. With 60 Grubng/Pyhton threads this number is 
around 20, rises over 100 with 100 threads, but this is still much lower 
than 2048...


Any ideas?

Regards,
O.K.

 See the sysctl variables:
 
 
 kern.maxfiles
 kern.maxfilesperproc

kern.maxfiles: 12328
kern.maxfilesperproc: 11095

 Note that Google leads immediately to this:

Yes, actually I saw this. 11095 seemed a big number in this case.

Increased to:
kern.maxfiles: 25000
kern.maxfilesperproc: 2

... and the problem remains...  :(

There are also messages like this:
named[63198]: client 127.0.0.1#60448: error sending response: host unreachable
