unable to allocate file descriptor table - out of memory

[arudolph-cxt]

for no apparent reason (9 out of 32G mem in use) the container is in an endless restart loop

log output:

Service definition in docker-compose.yaml:

    sqs:
        image: s12v/elasticmq:latest
        logging:
            driver: "json-file"
            options:
                max-size: "1M"
                max-file: "100"
        restart: unless-stopped
        networks:
            - chronext-product-aggregator

How can I fix this?
