Try giving -s<number> among tcpdump parameters, where number is at least 100 or so. Also, it is very useful to have full set of logs about it to see what corresponds to what, so that also the tcpdump and /proc/net/tcp from both ends would be included (one started during the problem is better than nothing but if you can get it from earlier point too it would be quite nice). I'll comment the rest of this mail later on... -- i.
