Summary:                    Error rate for 'asterisk.c: Accept returned -1: Too
many open files' is not throttled.
Description: 
When Asterisk 1.4.23.1 runs out of available filehandles, the log file
grows out of control and fills the disk in a very short period of time.
When this error occurs, approximately 700-800 lines of logging are produced
each second. This jams the system and essentially crashes Asterisk. Unless
Asterisk crashes first as a result of this error message that is, but the
two events happen so closely together that it's impossible to tell.

---------------------------------------------------------------------- 
And as of an hour ago, 1.4.25 has been released.  Note that this release
may in fact already address your problems with leaking file descriptors, as
part of the reason it was written was to diagnose leaking file descriptors
in 1.4.
