worker_connections specifies how many network connections a worker is
allowed to maintain. worker_rlimit_nofile specifies how many open file
handles are allowed per worker. Since all tcp connections are file
handles (descriptors) on *nix systems, worker_rlimit_nofile must be
greater than worker_connections.
