ah! only 1024. What is considered a reasonable value? Is it setting this or picking it
up from the defaults such as ulimits?
I assume I need to do this on all of the multi-masters and consumers to be the same, or do
I? Does it propagate? I'm not sharing the config tree among different servers.

http://directory.fedora.redhat.com/wiki/Performance_Tuning#Linux, which recommends
updating the filedescriptors limit like so:
