Hello. We recently renewed our SSL certificate. After reloading nginx the
number of connections increased significantly even if the number of requests
remained the same.

Trying out the debug log there are a lot of entries similar to the
following:
accept: 153.185.223.172:59011 fd:5
event timer add: 5: 60000:1409550689995
reusable connection: 1
epoll add event: fd:5 op:1 ev:80002001
post event 00007FF5AB84F280
delete posted event 00007FF5AB84F280

SSL_get_error: 2

reusable connection: 0
free: 0000000001DE0DF0, unused: 0
free: 0000000001E15510, unused: 136

Our SSL certificate is a Positive SSL Wildcard from Comodo.
