Hi Abeny,

 

 

It looks like you're incrementing the connection count on every HTTP request but only decrementing the count when the TCP connection is closed. As clients can make multiple HTTP requests over a single TCP connection, this might be where your count is going off. You could either assume there is one client per TCP connection (no proxies) and not increment the count in HTTP_REQUEST. Or maybe you could decrement the total count by the number of HTTP requests on the TCP connection in CLIENT_CLOSED.
