Hi, welcome to the ranch!

It helps if you can make your questions more specific. What kind of performance problem are you running into? How do you know the problem is in the socket code?

If you're just concerned about "am I using sockets wisely" or "could I do something better" feel free to post some small, focused sections of code for comment. Use the "CODE" button below the editor to preserve code formatting.

A couple shots in the dark ... Have you tried tuning the "backlog" parameter on the ServerSocket constructor? I don't think you're getting a full queue error, but I'd have to force the error and see what the exception I get to be sure.

Take a look at the Apache Commons replacement for ServerSocket. It has tunable buffer size.

Other things I find on Google about this error appear to all be Linux. Are you on Linux? I know zip about that.

Glad you found that.

Anyone, is there a general way for a server to throttle overwhelming connect requests? I made a server that accepts connection and passes the work of to a thread pool. If my task queue blocks when full I guess that would block me from accepting more connections. Then the requests would pile up in queue until it's full, and then the caller would get some kind of unavailable error?
