The "filedescriptors" report will tell you exactly what they are used for (or last used for if idle).
"One per file, helper, client connection, server connection" is the brief overview.
It's all relative to client traffic type, amount and particular responses coming back, AND any load balancing being done. So the details will be specific to each of those proxies.
