"many" ?

I do have usually something like this :
	Connections (782 inbound, 458 outbound, 245 exit, 1 control):
for and advertised bandwidth of 4 MBit, so >100 are quite normal.

Probably you should raise the ulimit, I do have for da dedicated server (and Gentoo) :

tfoerste at tor-relay ~ $ cat /etc/conf.d/tor
#
# Set the file limit
rc_ulimit="-n 30000"
