   Since it takes 60 seconds for a connection to go away after it has been
closed, 100 requests/second will create an average of 6000 TIME_WAIT
connections in addition to your downloads. It's no surprise that you are
occasionally hitting your 10000 mbuf clusters configuration limit.
   The only real solution to this is to further increase the configured
mbuf clusters so that you can handle the peaks. Ideally, you want 50%
more configured than you expect to use.
