As explained by Jean-Paul, it's due to the fact that the closed TCP sockets spend some time in TIME-WAIT state before being deallocated.
On Linux, this issue can be more or less worked-around using sysctl (net.ipv4.tcp_tw_{reuse,recycle}). There might be something similar on OS-X.
It's definitely an OS-level tuning issue.
Suggesting to close.
