 server.max-fds option 
 ===================== 

  As lighttpd is a single-threaded server, its main resource limit is the number of file descriptors, which is set to 1024 by default (on most systems). 

  If you are running a high-traffic site you might want to increase this limit by setting server.max-fds. 

  Changing this setting requires root permissions on startup.  

  By default lighttpd would not change the operation system default. But setting it to 2048 is a better default for busy servers. 
 
  :: 

   server.max-fds = 2048
