Re: Doubts about listen backlog and tcp_max_syn_backlog

What is important is the backlog, and I guess you didn't increase it
properly. The somaxconn default is quite low (128)

If that is being overflowed, I believe you should be seeing something like:

14 SYNs to LISTEN sockets dropped

in the output of netstat -s on the system on which the server application is running.
