Dropped TCP connections with 2.6.X kernel

Hi,

We're using a 2.6.X kernel,

and are experiencing intermittent dropped connections when the number of concurrent connections exceeds ~ 1000.

Does anybody have any insight into what might be happening here and/or troubleshooting techniques

for isolating the problem.
What system resources is TCP dependent on?

Many thanks,
Dave
