snmpd handles limit

Hi, 

I'm using snmpd as a proxy to handle all my devices polling from a
restricted environment to the production environment. Something like 
1400 devices. And I found that I can set up up to 1010 devices without
any problem. But as soon as I enter more devices, the daemon does not
start anymore, complaining that there are "Too many open files". I tried
to increase this value (though I can't figure out the limit it breaks)
to 4,000,000 handlers (from /prox/sys/fs/file-max (defaults to 202,747).
I can't create any more device anyway. So it must be something else that
I can't find out. 

Is this something hardcoded in the library or a value in the config file
that I could play with? 

Tks,
