You are correct; it appears that we are suffering a "close wait" problem; some client is requesting files from us rapidly; thousands at a time; and not closing its HTTP connections properly. In each case the server is taking part the the HTTP hang-up protocol; the client asks us to CLOSE; we tell it we are ready to CLOSE; and we are expecting to here back "good bye"; but the client is already gone ...
In Linux it takes a couple of minuets before this "CLOSE_WAIT" state times out; resulting in all our connections being used up.
