Well, I'd add another potentially useful piece of data: > net.inet.tcp.sendspace=1024000 > net.inet.tcp.recvspace=1024000 > kern.ipc.maxsockbuf=20480000 I don't think large socket buffers have been tested well, it's possible that you're exhausting almost all of your mbufs with just a few connections - if you're really stuffing that much data in.
