Ok, so I did some tweaking and found a workaround that will keep me in
business for the time being.
I tried setting MaxKeepAliveRequests to 0, and it got a lot farther than
before, but it now found a new point to consistently crap out at (same
error). So ... I turned off KeepAlive altogether, and that seems to do
the trick. I'm sure it's going to get me in trouble with scalability,
but that's a worry for another day. Do you think it would make sense to
open a bug for this and I'll attach information when I have tim eto do
some more investigation on the matter?
Thanks for your help so far!
