If you're using one of the early 64-bit builds that didn't have some of the checks in place then it is entirely possible there is an access issue that is happening behind the scenes with the requests that is resulting in something getting terminated. What version of 64-bit compatible MacFUSE are you using?
When you get the socket not connected, does the encfs process still live on? Have you looked for any crash reporter files? It could be a bug in encfs as well, I've had incorrectly built semaphore code (*cough* e.g. my own) result in a state where the process gets terminated because the number of requests hitting it simultaneously overloaded the implementation and resulted in a failure.
