Cannot open at least 576 files, please raise maximum open file limit in OS. #125

What happened?

When trying to use: chia_plot.exe -r 16 -u 512 -v 256 -K 2 -C 5 -n 1... I'm seeing the following error message: Cannot open at least 576 files, please raise maximum open file limit in OS.

when lowering the bucket count back to the default 256 the problem stops. The higher bucket count have worked flawlessly when i was plotting regular plots with madmax-plotter last year.

My server has 128gb ram, of which 110g is used for ramdisk.

This is essentially the same problem as Chia-Network/chia-blockchain#13741 but on windows instead of MacOS, with the addition of me not having any idea how to increase the maximum file limit.

Version

Gigahorse CPU-plotter v2.0.0-16eca1f

What platform are you using?

Windows server 2019, with all the latest updates

What ui mode are you using?

CLI

Relevant log output

Cannot open at least 576 files, please raise maximum open file limit in OS.

Try latest version, I added code for windows to increase max open limit.

Thank you, that seems to have resolved the issue.
