[Zope-dev] file descriptors on Solaris

[John Ziniti]

I am running into a problem where Zope is trying to open too many
file descriptors (256) in order to process a POST.

I'm not sure how to phrase this question, but my reading has suggested
that this limit may be set by the FILE struct in /usr/incldue/stdio.h.

Does anyone know if this is used in Python/Zope?

My first impression was that this problem would be easy to solve --
just up the number of FD's, but now, I'm not so sure.  Any
suggestions?

Here's a traceback -- but I don't think it's much help
