The TIME_WAIT sockets suddenly started to grow on a host running
FreeBSD 7.2-STABLE, date=2009.09.06.23.59.59
Usually there are 3,000-5,000 TIME_WAIT sockets on the host.
However, today they stared to grow, have reached 110,000 sockets in hour
and still remain on this level.
net.inet.tcp.msl is 30000.
The host uptime is 24 days, 21:53.

I have saved a coredump and may try to help to debug the issue.
