It also worth's noting that the game consists of an awful lot of small files...
I was copying around my steamapps folder yesterday, which has more than 50GB of
games and while L4D2 takes only 8GB of that, it took about half of the total
file count! (and it took a way longer time to copy than all the rest)

So I think even without having a bug here it is realistic from this game to
keep 10 thousands of files open. My question is if it is possible to do
something to make it work without editing system-wide security rules?

Is there some way to let just one application bypass the system-wide limit?

Also, what are the possible caveats of setting some insanely high setting in
limits.conf? Or disabling this sort of limit altogether... if that's possible
at all?
