How many synchronization objects can I use for each process and for each machine in Windows?

Question

It is very likely that there is a restriction on how many synchronization objects — semaphores, events, critical sections — can process one process and all processes on a given machine. What exactly is this limitation?

Answer 1

For windows, the processing limit for kernel descriptors (semaphores, events, mutexes) is 2^24.

From MSDN :
