    Description

      We choose 5% of free disk space for the oplog if not specified with --oplogSize. This is not a good idea if you have a very large disk, as it will create such a large oplog that the local database will consume 100's of files. This might then push the listening sockets past 1024 and fall out of range for select() to work, and mongod will thus fail to start.
