”Too many open files”

I have installed latest version of deluge and deluge-gtk using it on my main pc not server/nas side. I have about 20 torrents open when adding more to download it starts downloading it all fine for 2 minutes then stops for error ”too many open files” if i press resume it downloads for 10-20 seconds then stops again for same error.
Im also using itconfig super seed mode. I had same amount of torrents open in qbittorrent but no problems there at all.
Any advice how to fix this?

The super seeding mode is based on a heavy server, I never blindly using it but it inspires some settings change.
Does it occurs w/o this profile applied?
On Linux you have a limit for each user about the number of files opened. It may be a lead about such and need to be check on the computer running the Deluge server, with its particular user. Here is an article

If it never happens with the normal profile, you may tweak the file limit or adapt the super seeding profile in Deluge

FYI - In my experience this does not help. Or at least does not help as number of torrents gets large(~3K)
Code: Select all
debian-deluged@linux:~$ ulimit -Hn
65536
debian-deluged@linux:~$ ulimit -Sn
65536
I still get this issue when using the "High Performance Seed" profile. I have been slowing trying to whittle down which option(s) are the issue but am not there yet.
