I checked it, it looks fine.

cat /proc/sys/fs/file-nr
9210 0 32768

ulimit -a
----------
core file size (blocks, -c) 0
data seg size (kbytes, -d) unlimited
file size (blocks, -f) unlimited
pending signals (-i) 131072
max locked memory (kbytes, -l) 32
max memory size (kbytes, -m) unlimited
open files (-n) 32768
pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 8
POSIX message queues (bytes, -q) 819200
stack size (kbytes, -s) 8192
cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited
max user processes (-u) 131072
virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited
file locks (-x) unlimited

when I run it without cache_mem (i.e. default value), it runs fine,
without crashing at the same load.

Let me know if you need any other details.
