Hmm, why do you think so?

You will still bump into a "maximum number of sites"-limit. Then it doesn't
matter if it has the descriptors open for 10 minutes or 24 hours.

Yes, sure it would get around the file-descriptor limit. It would however
also be a very naive implementation, that would run very slowly. It could
only be used as a "proof of fact"-prototype.
