    Description

      We are currently using setrlimit(RLIMIT_NOFILE, OPEN_MAX) for XX:+MaxFDLimit, but we can go higher than that.

      My own testing on macOS 12.3.1 reveals that we can ask for setrlimit(RLIMIT_NOFILE, RLIM_INFINITY), though in reality we will get back 32765, which is still more than OPEN_MAX (10240)
