Too many open files

[dantman]

I'm trying to use flow with SublimeLinter and it's working.

However after awhile I get this error and have to restart sublime.

SublimeLinter: #219 flow UpdateHelpers.mjs ERROR:

 could not launch ['{app}/node_modules/.bin/flow', 'check-contents', '{app}/src/responsive-editor/js/store/template-helpers/UpdateHelpers.mjs', '--show-all-errors', '--json']
Reason: [Errno 24] Too many open files
PATH: /Users/daniel/.yarn/bin:/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/jdk1.8.0_101.jdk/Contents/Home/bin:/usr/local/bin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/opt/X11/bin:/usr/local/git/bin:/usr/local/MacGPG2/bin:/Library/Frameworks/Mono.framework/Versions/Current/Commands:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/share/npm/bin:/Users/daniel/Library/Android/sdk/platform-tools

Is there a way to fix this?

How many threads are running at that time? How long does one lint job usually take?

How do I check the thread count?

How do I check the thread count?

Each OS has its own program here. Doesn't need to be fancy. Maybe 'Process Monitor' / 'Task Monitor'.
