in reply to Socket hang. (Windows or Perl? Solutions?) (Updated)

Just to cover all bases, how are you determining the sockets that are in SYN_SENT (or whatever...) state?

At the time that this anomalous behavior occurs, what’s being recorded in the system logs?

Are you intending to create a system stress-test?

    Duh? FF.

    Using a tool designed for that job. In my case, TCPview.

    What system logs? This isn't a webserver.

    Are you intending to create a system stress-test?

    Of course I am. The posted code's sole purpose is to demonstrate the problem as quickly as possible.
