Hi, 2000 doesn't sound very high. I've used much higher values. Because you have so many fields and files, you may want to increase it. If you have Lucene in Action, we have a formula in there for calculating the number of open files used (section 2.7, according to http://www.lucenebook.com/search?query=open+files+maximum)
You said you got this error during your performance testing. Are you searching a single index and using a single IndexSearcher? Use a single IndexSearcher.
