Also, there are two separate issues here. The first is fixed by commit 12d8a53 and concerns a leak of connections from proxy to storage server. This is the one being discussed for backporting. The second is a file descriptor leak for client-to-proxy connections. It is reproducible on master (418f9b21) and may be in Swift, eventlet, somewhere else, or the interaction between any two or more of those.
