I have the kernel configured with 65536 sockets.  This system is very fast,
connected to a very fast network, with a very fast storage system.  It is
handling about 5000 connections per second and is maxing out its 65536
sockets (because so many are sitting in TIME_WAIT status).
This box is pushing ~90 megabit out of a gig-e card and is only using about
50% cpu, but unfortunately it cant answer any more connections because there
are no more sockets available.  i tried lowering msl, but that seems to make
the system act "wierd" (all the webserver processes seem to block at the
same status) -- and i tried upping the sockets to 131072, but that seems to
cause the system to panic.
any ideas?
