For some reason lsof takes forever on this system...um, and pegs the
load average to 20. Perhaps I won't run that any more. Any other
ideas?
In the meanwhile, I wrote a little loop to check the number of open
files every minute...it looks like innd is using an additional ~117
sockets per hour, but not in any strict pattern (anywhere from zero to
four in any given minute).
