<pre wrap="">I don't know much about the ins and outs of the various kernel tuning
paremeters, found in /proc/sys/ and edited with /etc/sysctl.conf and the
sysctl program.
I know how to set and display these values. What I want to find more
about is to see how current usage compares to these values. For
example, /proc/sys/fs/file-max is the number of open files allowed per
user, correct? How can I see if the current usage is approaching that
limit?
Thanks for any advice/pointers/comments that you may have!
