i've been working for a while trying to find the source of a nasty "too many open files" error when building lucene indexes using cocoon's LuceneIndexTransformer on mac os x. just for kicks, i decided to try everything out on a linux machine and didn't have any problems, and realized that it was an OS-specific thing. after some googling, i discovered that "a java application can't have more than 256 files open at once on mac os x."

i'd be happy to make a note in the LuceneIndexTransformer wiki about this, if anyone else thinks it's worthwhile.
thank you all for your help.
