Hi All, I am using Apache 2.2 MPM=worker and Red-Hat model is 3.0.Under heavy load when I do netstat -a, I see lots of socket in TIME_WAIT state.I reduced the value of net.ipv4.tcp_max_tw_buckets=100 and I saw the TIME_WAIT came down and the server was behaving correctly.But when I do dmesg I see the following lines in the terminal "TCP: time wait bucket table overflow" is it going to be a impact for the server under the heavy load?Actually what my observation is as "TIME_WAIT" increases there is a pause in Apache and again after some time it is back to normal. Any help would be very much appreciated. Thanks -A
