 Description   

We're using the 10gen AMI (ami-e565ba8c), and it appears that the /etc/security/limits.d/90-nproc.conf is setting the nproc ulimit to 1024. This then blocks the mongod init script from increasing the value to unlimited.

(This isn't a server bug, but there wasn't a better project to log against).

New AMIs submitted to the Marketplace correct this issue.

Latest AMIs didn't pick it up consistently. Re-examining.

Submitted updated AMIs to the AWS Marketplace that use limits documented here http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/administration/ulimit/#recommended-settings
