Handling a higher rate of outbound TCP connections

If you are using the Web Services API on a Windows client and frequently see errors such as java.net.BindException: Address already in use: connect in the client application, you might need to tune the client operating system parameters so that it can handle a higher rate of outbound TCP connections.

  1. Open the Registry.
  2. Under the following registry entry:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\TCPIP\Parameters
  3. Key in the registry of the Windows client machine.
  4. Add the following registry entries:

    TcpTimedWaitDelay
    Add this DWORD with a value of 30.
    MaxUserPort
    Add this DWORD with a value of 32768.
  5. Refer to the Windows documentation for further details on these registry entries.
