QUESTION(S): 1. Are there any general philosophies to tuning Tomcat to support a high number of maxThreads (1000+)?
2. Is there any rule of thumb for determining the appropriate number of open file descriptors? 3. What costs are associated with granting higher amounts of open file descriptors? ENVIRONMENT: RHEL 5, Sun Java 6, Tomcat 6 CONTEXT: We have recently upped the maximum number of threads for a handful of our Tomcat servers and have suffered from the "Too many open files" exceptions from the applications on the server; they also create HTTP connections to other services. We have not dealt with many high traffic applications especially those that consume other services via HTTP.
