h2. <pre> #!rst server.max-fds option server.max-fds ===================== 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. Default: ulimit -n h2. :: server.max-fds = 2048 See Also See ======== * server.max-connectionsDetails http://redmine.lighttpd.net/wiki/lighttpd/server.max-connectionsDetails <http://trac.lighttpd.net/trac/wiki/server.max-connectionsDetails> </pre>
