And what is seen on the server side?

There is mainly two limits that may get hit with such results, not
counting kernel bugs.

a) Firewall connection tracking.

b) Socket listen backlog queue.

'a' shows up in dmesg.

not sure about 'b'.

With which version of the RBAC patch? RBAC 1.4.5 have issues according
to rbac.org, and 2.6.35.10 is in the affected range. Now I do not think
that issue affects socket operations but not 100% sure.

Maybe. Wonder what that is. Amos?
