I regularly run this command:

./pre-inst-env guix refresh -t cran,bioconductor -u

This makes a lot of HTTP requests to check for updates. It often aborts
with this error before it can finish checking for updates of all
packages:

guix refresh: error: open-file: Too many open files:
"/home/rekado/.cache/guix/http/EXpQeEGkSNjRNVeWpGMNV8ENjJfhl2vugsTbrdaTshg="
