Without this, on very large systems (i.e. 64 GPU / 192 Core), it was not possible to open all devices without manual tweaks to file handle descriptor limits. The result were various forms of RESOURCE_EXHAUSTED errors. This may require more tweaking in the future, and for fully robust setups, production installations should explicitly configure high limits. However, these heuristics remove a significant barrier to entry and provide some feedback in terms of logs.
Progress on #463
