Some library call returned EAGAIN. The prime suspect is usually fork(2), but in 
the case of a network library, I'd look at send(2) first.

Do you have a managed switch behind a router in system?
Maybe a 1G Hz router feeding a 100K Hz router?
Most newer boxes have a 1GHz NIC (built in) in them.   We have a managed 1 G 
Hz switch that is managed and we have a Motorola router that is less than 1 
GHz with factory default set up.   The switch shows up on our network as a 
device!   I sort of wondered about it as a cause of our stack up (slowness) 
sometimes in the afternoon.   I have never seen much discussion about a 
managed switch and network performance.

Well thanks again Stephan, my problem was indeed a socket timeout 
problem.  This project is a proxy server for the proprietary protocol, a 
stand alone threaded java to C++ interface.  Some moron (me) put the 
timeout on listen connection instead of the client session socket.  D'Oh!


Larry,  I do not use a managed switch.

Best,
Joe
