I did, but had only set it "dynamically".  I did raise it quite high, 
5000 I believe.  After that I initiated the load, but from a "normal" 
user shell which had the default proc.[shell_pid].rlimit.descriptors.soft=64
limitation.  Hence my question, from where does the load inherit its limit.

I'm stepping back and looking at where I should set it at the kernel level,
and then where I can set it for specific users and/or processes.
