  Yesterday two of our web servers running 6.2-PRERELEASE experienced

processed by TCP stack. No accept queue overflows occured, according
to 'netstat -sp tcp'.

Failing to find any clue I have rebooted one of them, and after
reboot is started to work flawlessly. Reboot also helped the second
one. Both servers were booted at the same time - 124 days ago.

Any ideas, any similar reports?

ticks is a 32 bit signed integer and TCP isn't really aware of it
going negative and rolling over.  This is something I'm working on
fixing in -current.  Haven't analyzed all potential cases there yet.
