[rabbitmq-discuss] Questions about limit alarm and report in the log file

Hi

I've got some questions about the limit alarms report in the log file, some entries are not clear to me.

1 this line is reported in the log files when we are close to the file handles or memory limit?: 
=INFO REPORT==== 
Limiting to approx 3996 file handles (3594 sockets)

=INFO REPORT====
Memory limit set to 38749MB.

2 why there is this difference between the file handles and the number of sockets?

3 the following entries mean that we hit the limit for file_descriptor? Why we have a set and a clear?
=INFO REPORT==== 
    alarm_handler: {set,{file_descriptor_limit,[]}}

=INFO REPORT==== 
    alarm_handler: {clear,file_descriptor_limit} 

Regards
