sockets - Go, tcp too many open files debug

Question

Here's a straightforward Go http (tcp) connection test script

func main() {
    ts := httptest.NewServer(http.HandlerFunc(func(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
        fmt.Fprintln(w, "Hello, client")
    }))
    defer ts.Close()
    var wg sync.WaitGroup
    for i := 0; i < 2000; i++ {
        wg.Add(1)
        go func(i int) {
            defer wg.Done()
            resp, err := http.Get(ts.URL)
            if err != nil {
                panic(err)
            }
            greeting, err := ioutil.ReadAll(resp.Body)
            resp.Body.Close()
            if err != nil {
                panic(err)
            }
            fmt.Printf("%s", i, greeting)
        }(i)
    }
    wg.Wait()
}

And If I run this in Ubuntu I get:

panic: Get http://127.0.0.1:33202: dial tcp 127.0.0.1:33202: too many open files

Other posts say to make sure Close the connection, which I am doing it all here. And others say to increase the limit of maximum connection with ulimit or try sudo sysctl -w fs.inotify.max_user_watches=100000 but still does not work.

How do I run millions of tcp connection goroutines in a single server? It crashes only with 2,000 connections.

Thanks,
