Okay, assuming that I'm doing this right, here' what I have:

Last night, before I went to bed:

mars# netstat -A | grep stream | wc -l ; sockstat -u | wc -l
    2705
    2981

Today, 5 minutes ago:

# netstat -A | grep stream | wc -l ; sockstat -u | wc -l
    4397
    2961

Looking at the Conn field from netstat -A:

mars# awk '{print $6}' /tmp/output | sort | uniq -c | sort -nr | head -5
2125 0
   1 d14dbe10
   1 d14dbbd0
   1 d14dbb40
   1 d14dba20

So, 2125 sockets not connected to anything?
