hello,
if I increase the number of file descriptors
by increasing the maxusers and recompile the kernel,
would not it be slow because maxusers effects more than 
just file descriptors? I am using squid NOVM on my freebsd
box and it sometimes needs so many file descriptors,
but I do not have lots of processes running (maybe 30)
is there any other way to increase file descriptor s?
thanks

I guess so, but I have never tried that. Maybe you ask someone on
the freebsd mailing lists...
