Hi, I have met the problem: when I use the shaping discipline tc qdisc add dev ppp0 parent 1:2 tbf latency 50ms burst 1450 rate 50kbit one of my application (namely, "aMule") starts leaving sockets in "CLOSING" state. These sockets accumulate and do not disappear. Eventually I have so many of these dead sockets that the kernel warns "Out of socket memory" in syslog (That happens when I have more than 5000 dead sockets). When the discipline above canceled the problem disappears. Now the questions. 1. Is it problem of my application (=aMule) or QoS. 2. Is there any way to eliminate these "dead" sockets out of kernel memory, like "kill"? Please, share if you have any ideas. Thanks, D. _______________________________________________ LARTC mailing list LARTC@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://mailman.ds9a.nl/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/lartc
