From: Thorbjoern Ravn Andersen
If I understand Aaron correctly, the problem is the HTTP server not
servicing requests fast enough, not necessarily that there are too few
threads. The behaviour described fits with the TCP/IP layer filling up.

I subscribed the behavior to the HTTP server rejecting connections, probably due
to limiting the number of threads, and at the same time enabling persistent
connections. If you only enable 10 connections, and hold on to each, somebody
is bound to get rejected.

I've done quite a bit of stress testing, and never encountered a rejected
connection at the i/OS level; only at the HTTP server level.
