Hi!

I was using varnish-1.0.4 on a high load site (1.5k req/sec) for some time but 
i experienced frequent slave process restarts and master process died couple 
times a week so I gave version 1.1 a shoot.

Unfortunately it is not able to stand a minute for me.

I start it with prams
varnishd \
-f /etc/varnishd/varnishd.conf \
-T 127.0.0.1:81 \
-P /var/run/varnishd.pid \
-s file,/var/spool/varnishd/varnishd_storage.bin,80% \
-w1,1000,10

ulimit should not be problem. I was hitting 1024 open file limit before but I 
rised to 4k and now it should be ok.
09:52:48 root[pts/0]@slow install/varnish-1.0.4# ulimit -a

Please let me know if I am doing anything wrong or if you need more 
information.
Thanks in advance.

Janis Putrams
