WARNING: The following method I discovered in a Google search is only for the strong of stomach or those of sufficiently little technical experience that a nauseatingly blecherous hack will just go over their heads: http://www.islandnet.com/~mark/somaxconn.html "Increasing SOMAXCONN This web page deals with the what, why, and how of altering the SOMAXCONN kernel parameter. I don't claim to be an expert on this, so don't freak out if I've got some of the theory wrong. All I know is that this worked for me. It may or may not work for you." Go there for details, I don't have the stomach to republish it here :-) -- sidney
