G'day all,

We recently had a bit of a catastrophe when one of our postgres databases 
opened too many files.  It was a reasonably easy fix, but it did get me 
thinking.  Is there a rule of thumb in determining how many file descriptors 
should be available to a postgres database/cluster?

I'd be happy to set it to some large number, but I'd really like some 
confidence about how much the database can grow with a new limit.

Cheers!
