This must enter into your choice of operating system, but I don't
think of the term "file descriptors" as being an Ada phrase.  If
you are limiting your choice to operating systems that use such
a construct, consider whether that is an artificial limit on the
available implementations.

The operating system with which I am most familiar had to increase
the number of simultaneous IO channels available, in recent years.
So not only the operating system but also the version may be important.

In that case, there are also multiple network implementations
available for each of two protocol sets.  These also have different
limitations.
