On the tuning suggestion, my guess, untested and purely from reading your paste, is that if something is genuinely holding sockets then raising tcp_mem buys headroom rather than stopping the accumulation, and your post#4 about throughput coming back on an xo_server restart points the same way.
It might be worth a mention to @Team-XO-Backend, since they would know whether xo-server keeps sockets per pool.
This is why I'm not increasing the numbers quite yet. Since this would only mask a potential issue. If an underlying cause is responsible, then this would be of interest.
Thanks for chiming in!
