Make sure you re-configure and re-compile Polygraph when you change FD
limits.
Polygraph reports the number of FD it can open during ./configure. It
also reports the number of FD available at start up. Again, I do not
know how to change the number of FDs on Linux (including the
FD_SETSIZE value), but there is a way (and it is probably Linux
version specific).
