Hello! I have a 5.3 installation which currently has about 5000 'ESTABLISHED' TCP connections. That figure quadruples in the evening. Are there any sysctls that I should be tweaking to handle lots of TCP connections? The machine is running pf -- is there some logging I could be doing to see if pf is being overloaded? Is there anything else I could be doing to see if some part of the OS is failing to handle load? Unfortunatly, I don't really have any concrete symptoms to suggest that the networking part of this OS is overloaded. Any suggestions for finding real problems would be gratefully received :) Ed
