Re: Help increasing FDs

In /usr/include/bits/types.h change the
#define __FD_SETSIZE 1024
in
#define __FD_SETSIZE 4096

Afaik I know recent squids were supposed to ignore this value when you
compile squid to use poll() which you should do. But changing it is
common practice and it works.

Remember that you have to recompile glibc 2 before you go above 1024 while
using poll()! Cause if your glibc is not compiled against linux 2.2 it
will emulate poll() by using select().
