I tried this myself and cannot replicate, it's all good for me and no leaks.

If there are sockets leaked, I would rather expect "files" of type
IPv4, not FIFO, to show up.
I don't know what FIFO files are, but according to
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/15956452/troubleshooting-too-many-files-open-with-lsof
they are the streams of child processes?
In that case it's not Jetty (we don't spawn child processes).
According to https://linux.die.net/man/7/fifo, a FIFO file is a named
pipe, and again Jetty does not do that - I doubt the JVM does when
Jetty asks to use sockets.
