:I noticed on a very high traffic'd webserver, I have just over 4000 sockets
:stuck in the TIME_WAIT state. Ideally, I want to "bend" the RFC a bit and
:close the descriptor before it hits that state, or, ignore the 2MSL wait
:when it enters that state.
:
:I take it there is no sysctl switch to trigger this, so, am I going
:kernel diving?

Just ignore them, that's what we do. They should not start to
impact on performance until you hit at least 15000 sockets.
