I am load testing a local web app running Tomcat 5.5 and as the load test 
approaches 100 users I start to get

java.net.SocketException: Connection reset

At that time, I cannot call the tomcat server either through the load test or 
browser manually. However, if I remove cookies from the browser or restart the 
load test then it starts to work. I found this old email about connection reset 
here:

http://marc.info/?l=tomcat-user&m=120162616808662&w=2

This talks about incorrect HTTP request that disconnects in the middle, but I 
am pretty sure the load test or the browser is not doing it. Is there a way to 
fix it, perhaps by increasing number of maximum connections Tomcat can accept. 
Thanks in advance.
