PSA: as of systemd/256~rc3-3 the open file descriptors hard limit is
bumped early at boot from 1048576 to the max value that the kernel
allows, which on amd64 is currently 1073741816.
Hi,
It seems some proprietary software (the JetBrains IDEs) has some
problems with this change.
See for instance: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IJPL-156522
While I wait for them to fix this on their end, what's the best way to
revert this to the original behaviour on my machine?
I would think:
echo "fs.nr_open = 1048576" > /etc/sysctl.d/99-max-fds.conf
… would do the trick, but "ulimit -Hn" reports 524288.
Something to do with DefaultLimitNOFILE=1024:524288 maybe? But
overriding that didn't work.
Thanks,
