It looks like you are establishing quite a lot of connections 
concurrently and either the clients or the server is getting too busy to 
complete the connection establishment handshake in the allocated time.

Is the server process busy? And how much memory is it using?

And if you stop connecting - make sure there are no more connection 
messages appearing in the log - does the server eventually recover?
