If Pound fails to connect to a back-end it will mark it as dead. There
are many possible causes for a failure, but the most common are back-end
load (it's slow to react, or perhaps it runs out of network buffers) and
network congestion (collisions, overload). Try increasing your
time-outs, but also connecting to the back-ends on separate network
cards and separate network segments. Tuning your network parameters may
also help.[...]

So far I've successfully found this out. I was ran out of both state entries
and source connection ports. I had to increase the available portrange and
decrease the timeouts for the final and closing states. This was an issue
of the packetfilter rather then pound's. Sorry for disturbing the list
with it.

Sincerely,
