Hi Lachlan,

Checking direct actions is a great idea. We also do a periodic
"netstat -n | grep CLOSE_WAIT", kill the instances which have too many
connections in CLOSE_WAIT state and send alert emails with additional
info (mysql process list, app's intance log tail, instance's dump,
open files via lsof).

Arguably, this is a bit easier to implement and maintain on a server
with lots of different apps. Especially, when you cannot modify the
app itself.
