Re: File descriptors

["Dan Trainor - hostinthebox.net" <info@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

It'd be neat to find out what exactly is eating the file descriptors.  A 
couple things you could do;

1) make sure squid is eating them, and not anything else on that drive. 
 It's a bad idea to share the partition where squid's cache lives, with 
anything else (emphasis on mail server)

2) format the squid partition (the cache is on a seperate partition, 
isn't it...?) to use a much smaller blocksize

3) if all else fails, this is a good article, which includes information 
about increasing file descriptors:

Hope that helps
