Recently, I attempted to recheck all torrents in a set of about one
hundred. The operation failed for most of the torrents, not because the
data was found corrupt, but because the application attempted to start all
checks simultaneously. After the attempted operation, most items in the
set showed on the list as errors ("red water drop icon"), and on the
status page with the message "Error: To many open files".
The workaround was to select smaller segments from the list manually, and
to wait for the operation to near completion for each segment before
moving to the next.
I have found no reason why the problem might have emerged. I have a
comparable deployment on another site, with the same client and server
configuration, and the problem is not occurring.
Both server and client are version 2.0.3 running on Linux Mint systems.
