What is the high limit for the nofiles parameter in the /etc/security/limits file?
 
32767 as shown:

This is in /usr/include/sys/param.h as:
#define NOFILE OPEN_MAX
and OPEN_MAX is defined in /usr/include/sys/limits.h as:
#define OPEN_MAX 32767

This is the default configuration value in the kernel master file, but can be overridden.
