tcp_max_tw_buckets
Maximal number of timewait sockets held by system simultaneously.
If this number is exceeded time-wait socket is immediately destroyed
and warning is printed. This limit exists only to prevent simple DoS
attacks, you _must_ not lower the limit artificially, but rather increase
it (probably, after increasing installed memory), if network conditions
require more than default value.

"Firewall performance measurement"
--- a selection follows.
Size of available TCP port range:
When connecting to the same server on the same port, there are
64,512 non-privileged ports available on the client side as source
ports. According to RFC793[5], a port cannot be reused until the
TCP_TIME_WAIT state expires. The recommended timeout value in
the RFC is 4 minutes, which would mean 268 new request per
second at the maximum. In the Linux kernel the timeout value of
the TCP_TIME_WAIT state is around 1 minute, which means a
maximum of 1075 new request per second.
