There should be plenty of space even with a lot of listening sockets though, given the default limit of 2M on Linux. Even with "listen ... reuseport", when a separate listening socket is created for each worker process, it does not look like the limit can be easily reached: 2M should be enough for about 300k listening sockets, so with 55 worker processes it is about 5k listening sockets with reuseport. How many listening sockets do you have? Do they use "listen ... reuseport" option? What "getconf ARG_MAX" and "ulimit -s" show on your system? Any 3rd party modules (and what "nginx -V" shows)? -- Maxim Dounin http://mdounin.ru/ _______________________________________________ nginx mailing list nginx@nginx.org http://mailman.nginx.org/mailman/listinfo/nginx
