Where can I read more about the Debian decision?

I was wrong, it's 1024 not 256. It's a soft limit, so easy to adjust once you're aware that you need to.

Thanks.

Please note that the soft limit still is 1024, as that's what legacy syscalls like select() can handle.

I guess anything using select() would break with a higher limit?
