First of all: Don't _ever_ set max_connections to more than 200. If you, for example, use 800, mldonkey will open many connections to peers,
I second this. It does not matter how much FDs your kernel is configured, experiment, but too many open connections will be handled less efficiently. In my tests the best values seems around 100. Just try to raise/lower max_opened_connections and log the total dl bandwidth, it will be quite obvious
A little trick: leave max_opened_connections to 100, and when connecting to servers, raise it temporarily to 200 during 1mn. This will ensure 100 free slots so that the servers will be able to connect easily, allowing you to get always High IDs.
PS: This is an old problem with mldonkey (wrt emule): The defaults values are often quite unreasonable.
