I tested performance and got this error.
error: sophia/index/si_node.c:158 db file '_test/test/00000000000000009000.00000000000000009002.db.incomplete' create error: Too many 
It's look like it tried to open files more than my system limit during a compaction. Is that correct?
I didn't find any configuration in documentation for this case. Can you tell how to avoid such situations?

Hi, Sorry i haven't yet came up to write a section about it.

Basically, the limit can be set by "ulimit -n 100000" and by editing /etc/security/limit.conf (man limit.conf)

Here what Basho suggests to do: http://docs.basho.com/riak/kv/2.1.4/using/performance/open-files-limit/

Thanks. I think it would be enough.
