Hi, I'm trying to figure out what some reasonable settings would
be for kernel parameters like shared memory and max open files.
I've read the section of the manual but it doesn't seem to give
any rule of thumb based on number of users or frequency of queries.

With my load testing I definitely bump up against the max open files
problem but I'm not sure about the shared memory.

I'm running linux (redhat 6.1)

If you have a high volume production system, can you post your
parameter settings and anything you tweak at startup?

Thanks,

Alex.
