You normally do not need to care about these. Linux deals with
TIME_WAIT and FIN_WAIT in a very efficient manner.
If you have a server making very many connections per second you may
need to increase the local port range
(/proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range) but the default in current
RedHat 7.2 (kernel-2.4.9-31) is sufficient for almost all uses of
Squid (32768-61000 == good for 470 outgoing TCP connections per
second, unlimited amount of accepted TCP connections).
