Added a warning that appears in Proton Log for systems that have low file descriptor limit
I’m glad to see that. There are reasons why debian didn’t choose to increase their default limit beyond 256, but some games require it and if you happen to find one it can be tricky to figure out what went wrong.
Where can I read more about the Debian decision?

I was wrong, it’s 1024 not 256. It’s a soft limit, so easy to adjust once you’re aware that you need to.
Thanks.
Please note that the soft limit still is 1024, as that’s what legacy syscalls like select() can handle.
I guess anything using select() would break with a higher limit?
