Linux

  • The Ubuntu default file limit per process is 1024 (ulimit -n to show). Raise it by editing /etc/security/limits.conf and add "* - nofile 10000", or some other high value. Logout and login to affect the change.

OS X

  • Mac OSX uses DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH instead of unix LD_LIBRARY_PATH. You may also want to take a good look at https://github.com/zeromq/jzmq/issues/29.
  • The default file limit per process is 256. Raise it by running ulimit -n 1200 for bash, or in tcsh run limit descriptors 1200
