performance problem with Tomcat

I was getting more than 70-80,000 sockets in TIME_WAIT.
I had to use tcp_timestamp to recycle them faster otherwise I get huge  
dip in performance
once in a while (along with IP port range all open)

Since MSL is 60 second, that is more than 1200 TCP connections/sec.
All there is to my nginx config is upstream and proxy_pass config.  
that's it.
