If the socket buffers are too large, try:

ConstrainedSockets 1

If they're still too large, try:

ConstrainedSockSize 4096

Then:

ConstrainedSockSize 2048

If there are too many sockets, try:
(This option is known to close too many sockets.)

DisableOOSCheck 0

For more details, see:

(Oh, and don't modify ConnLimit, it won't help.)
