Thanks Ken.

How do we determine (from the O.S.) how many sockets are currently open
?

A while ago, we were opening up a ton of sockets and got a "Too many
files open" error. I don't know what you're getting, but if that's it,
you might try (1) opening fewer sockets, (2) upping operating system
limit (Twisted doesn't control that).

According to our admin, on Linux, that would be /proc/sys/fs/file-max
and use "sysctl -w 'fs.file-max=<new limit>'" to up the limit.
