# netstat -a -n|grep ".80 "|cut -c 68-|sort|uniq -c|sort -n
      6 LISTEN
     36 LAST_ACK
     53 CLOSING
     61 CLOSE
     68 SYN_RECV
    157 FIN_WAIT2
    225 FIN_WAIT1
    369 ESTABLISHED
   4054 TIME_WAIT

Machine is web serwer with reather big traffic. Why there is
so much connections in TIME_WAIT state ?

Similar problem was in FreeBSD 3.x, but in 4.0 there is better.
Connections in TIME_WAIT state is below 500.
