    <description>&lt;P&gt;I am using Splunk 5.0.2 and I see many CLOSE_WAIT when running netstat -an command.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
Splunkweb becomes unresponsive and I have to restart splunk to fix the issue.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;This is a bug in the cherrypy threading code where the number of worker threads are reduced to a really low amount and no new threads are allowed to spawn. &lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
This has been fixed in 5.0.3 but if you are using versions pre-5.0.3 then you can workaround the issue by modifying web.conf on all of the search heads.&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
Please add below settings in web.conf and restart your splunk instance.&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;PRE&gt;&lt;CODE&gt;server.thread_pool_max = 30 &lt;BR /&gt;
server.thread_pool_max_spare = 31 &lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;/CODE&gt;&lt;/PRE&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
