+ @variable nr_files:int The number of allocated file handles, i.e.,
+ the number of files presently opened
+ @variable nr_free_files:int The number of free file handles
+ @variable file_max:int The maximum number of file handles
+
+ If the number of allocated file handles is close to the maximum,
+ you should consider increasing the maximum. Before Linux 2.6, the
+ kernel allocated file handles dynamically, but it didn't free them
+ again. Instead the free file handles were kept in a list for
+ reallocation; the "free file handles" value indicates the size of
+ that list. A large number of free file handles indicates that there
+ was a past peak in the usage of open file handles. Since Linux 2.6,
+ the kernel does deallocate freed file handles, and the "free file
+ handles" value is always zero.
