You may want to run your proxy with "-d network" or even "-d all" and
see if anything comes up.

Are you certain that this problems occurs after a certain amount of time
rather than an amount of connections?
It could be a resource leak somewhere that eventually causes the proxy
to reject or be unable to process new connections.

I don't have a better solution to offer as of right now.

Can you please create a new issue and I'll try to reproduce it when I
get a chance?
