THe limit of resources that an OS can deal with is limited due to resources, both globally and per user, precisely to avoid DoS attacks by a uses. In the case of linux, you can control it with "ulimit -n XXXX" (for the user that runs the test). The default here is 1024 (and the maximum, unless it is globally raised). I imagine windows will have similar limits, and similar (registry, etc.) ways to handle them.
