Bug Description
The default number of allowed open files (which is 1024) is too low for many situtations. E.g. when developing with Eclipse with many different plugins installed it's very easy to get "Too many open files" Exception.
The fix is to setup number of allowed files larger than 1024. This is done /etc/security/
