This might be the cause to the bug I encountered.
I had the same problem while using ICAP.
by the same I mean:
I wrote ICAP server and while testing the ICAP server itself I managed
to load it to more then 20,000 connections with no problem and
performance issues while, squid after about 900+ requests stops sending
requests to the ICAP server and sending the client some 5XX code error page.

at the time I didnt new what was the cause for that.
I was thinking maybe FD or something else but I dont know what can I do
to help testing it.

Thanks,
Eliezer
