These are usually harmless, unless they go up in a sudden spike or are
accompanied by other problems, its ok.

This is also mostly harmless, it indicates that cyrus was unable to
unlimit its max # of file descriptors, which is generally ok.

change the code?  turn off logging?  Since the setrlimit one only occurs
at startup, it shouldn't be that big a deal.  I can see the DBERROR one
being more annoying I guess, but it would require a change to the code.
