Or > am I reading this wrong? Correct. The max_open_files setting applies _per partition_. If Q is the number of partitions, you'll need to make sure your ulimit -n is set to: Q * max_open_files (at least). Realistically, it's probably going to need to be above that as the system also needs file handles for logs, open sockets, etc. D. -- Dave Smith Director, Engineering Basho Technologies, Inc. diz...@basho.com _______________________________________________ riak-users mailing list riak-users@lists.basho.com http://lists.basho.com/mailman/listinfo/riak-users_lists.basho.com
