Thanks everyone.

Try a netstat -i to see if you have any interface errors. Check to see if
there are errors or a duplex speed mismatch by checking these settings on
the switch that you are connected to. The error your getting is a TCP error
but if the lower levels of networking aren't configured proeprly it could
cause timeots and a hit on performance. By correcting speed/duplex
mismatches on my switch i got our sites down from 5 second pageloads to 1.25
and collectively they get more than 1 million hits a month.

I would definitely consider exploring setting your device to hard-coded 100
full-duplex if possible. Talk with your network administrator to make sure
you are plugged into a switch which is capable of full-duplex mode, then run
through the following:

# ndd -set /dev/hme adv_10fdx_cap 0 <-- don't use 10 full
duplex
# ndd -set /dev/hme adv_10hdx_cap 0 <-- don't use 10 half
duplex
# ndd -set /dev/hme adv_100hdx_cap 0 <-- don't use 100 half duplex
# ndd -set /dev/hme adv_100fdx_cap 1 <-- DO use 100 full duplex
# ndd -set /dev/hme adv_autoneg_cap 0 <-- don't use auto-negotiation

Note that the last ndd above will cause the hme interface to reset, causing a
temporary network outage. You'll also want to make sure that the interface
on the switch is hard-set to 100/full as well, auto-negotiation is bad on
either end.

Also, did you make sure to set the tcp_conn_req_max_q on system startup?
Parameters set with ndd will not persist across reboot, they must be set on
startup every time (typically via an initialization script under /etc/rc*.d).
