Re: wo adaptor produces "broken pipe"s

This message means, "the source of this request has closed the 
connection".  Often this means that the user has hit stop or navigated 
somewhere else.  In  your case it probably means that the app too so 
long to respond that the adaptor gave up and went to another instance.  
Have the users been reporting "no instance available" or "your session 
has expired" errors?

Unless you have changed the app, I would guess that you have some 
optimization work to do.  Likely you have exceeded some critical 
threshold in data size and processing is now taking longer than the 
woadaptor is prepared to wait.  Often this results from a slow fetch 
and simply adding a performance index will solve the problem.  
Otherwise, you will need to work on your code and / or start using the 
much dreaded WOLongResponsePage.  As an interim measure,  you can 
increase the Connect and Receive adaptor timeouts in JavaMonitor.

I don't recall the CLOSE_WAIT problem being related to this.
