How do I check how many HTTP connections are open currently?

Keep it mind that http is a stateless protocol. Each line can represent one client opening multiple sockets to grab different files (css, images, etc) that will hang out for awhile in a timewait state.

To display only active Internet connections to the server at port 80 and sort the results, allow to recognize many connections coming from one IP

# netstat -an | grep :80 | sort

To display the list of the all IP addresses involved instead of just count.

# netstat -n -p | grep SYN_REC | sort -u

Slow Server

# netstat -ntu | awk '{print $5}' | cut -d: -f1 | sort | uniq -c | sort -n 

# netstat -nat | grep :80 | grep ESTAB | wc -l

# netstat -nat | grep :80 | gawk '{ print $5; }' | gawk -F: '{ print $1 }' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n

# netstat -an|grep ":80"|awk '/tcp/ {print $6}'|sort -nr| uniq -c | sort -n

# netstat -plan|grep :80|awk {'print $5'}|cut -d: -f 1|sort|uniq -c|sort -nk 1

For Java?

# netstat -nat | grep :1935 | gawk '{ print $5; }' | gawk -F: '{ print $1 }' | sort | uniq -c | sort -n

Need to optimize?
