It may be worthy to note what platform you are using and whether or not the network service provider is limiting the number of network connections as well. Although I do not think this is the issue that you are referring to and the replies seem to indicate a code oriented issue, I have noticed that my particular Internet Service Provider limits simultaneous connections to around 250 even with a 3mbit connection. As the number of connections increases, my connection is eventually reset and I receive a new IP and all of my previous connections are lost. I think it wise to mention this possible bottleneck in design and testing of softwares being tested on non-production servers as it may cause unusual behavior when testing with DSL or Cable connections; given the recent nature of and response by ISP's to file sharing and bit-torrent traffic this type of limiting isn't surprising. This type of phenomenon may also be a means of trying to quash Internet worms.
