imfile module file limit

Hi, Im using the imfile module to forward some files and read that there
is a 100 file limit. Is this limit based on actual existing monitored
files or configured files? For example, if I configure 200 files to be
monitored but only 20 of those files actually exist on the current
system, does this count as 200 or 20 towards that file limit?

Thanks,

It's the size of the tracking table, so all files count. But you can simply
change MAX_INPUT_FILES setting and recompile to increase the limit.

It's a good reminder that this must become dynamic in v6.
