              This option should be unnecessary for the vast majority
 
139
              of users.
 
140
              The use of this option could even be harmful because the
 
141
              specified value may exceed the limitation of the
 
142
              underlying system API.
 
143
              It is therefore set only when the default configuration
 
144
              causes exhaustion of file descriptors and the
 
145
              operational environment is known to support the
 
146
              specified number of sockets.
 
147
              Note also that the actual maximum number is normally a little
 
148
              fewer than the specified value because
 
149
              <span><strong class="command">named</strong></span> reserves some file descriptors
 
150
              for its internal use.
