Reported Fixes in TIB_ss_6.5.1_CFIX_V5:
In addition to the defects addressed in hotfixes 1 through 4 the following  new defects are addressed in this hotfix.

   * Improved Java memory management with regards to the output stream buffer. (SR-2RH659)

   * Fixed a problem in the dispatcher where a destroy on the conn pointer array caused a crash when
     the dispatcher was null. (SR-23V75D)

   * Fixed a problem where unhandled socket error codes could cause RTserver to spin CPU cycles. (SR-2G7FZ1)

   * Fixed a problem in java clients where timeouts were checked prior to checking the read queue.  This caused
     keepalives to be sent when data was actually available on the queue. (SR-2IHYHX)

   * Modified the receiveing queue size within gmc to be user configurable. (SR-2IHYHX)

   * Modified the behavior of all RTserver sockets to implicitly set SO_LINGER to 0.  This fixes a problem that was seen on
     some platforms [Linux] where a socket connection is lost and RTserver would hang waiting for a close to complete.
     (SR-2G7FZ1)

   * Fixed a problem where the conn was being locked just before issuing a sleep during reconnection.  This caused the conn
     to not be servicable while this sleep was being processed. (SR-2L5N3H)

   * Fixed a problem where multiple threads accessing the same connection may try to reconnect at the same time. (SR-2L5N3H)

   * Fixed a problem where certain monitoring watch calls could cause server crashes in a large server cloud.  (SR-2MK52P)
