I am seeing following on one of our nginx servers:

Active connections: 104  
server accepts handled requests  
1319784 1319784 1641260  
Reading: 0 Writing: 98 Waiting: 6

Connections in “Writing” states keep on piling up as the time goes by  
until restart, has anybody else seen this situation and tried to solve?

Thanks,
