The +zdbbl parameter helped a lot but the hinted handoffs didn't
disappear completely. I have no more busy dist port errors in the
_console.log_ (why aren't they in the error.log? it looks for me like a
serious problem you have.. at least our cluster was behaving not that
nice).

I'll try to increase the buffer size to a higher value because my
suggestion is that also the objects send from one to another are also
stored therein and we have sometimes objects which are up to 15MB.

But I saw now also some crashes in the last 6 hours on only two machines
complaining about too many processes

----------------
console.log
2013-07-19 02:04:21.962 UTC [error] <0.12813.29> CRASH REPORT Process 
<0.12813.29> with 15 neighbours exited with reason: {system_limit

crash.log
2013-07-19 02:04:21 UTC =ERROR REPORT====
Too many processes
----------------

the process has a process limit of 95142. So I will increase it now but I never 
saw any information about such problems on the linux tuning page. Am I missing 
something?

Cheers
Simon
