We are also looking at running 2 copies of stunnel and splitting out traffic across 2 different interfaces to cut that connection total to something manageable.

Are there any known issues with 4.53 around memory usage?
We only terminate 2 ports against the installation 443 on 2
different interfaces / IP addresses and we ran into this issue
with just under 5000 total connections
What do you mean by "5000 total connections"? 5000 from opened and
closed? 5000 concurrent?
I'm afraid 5000 concurrent connections may be about as many as
32-bit stunnel can handle on this platform. 64-bit build is on my
TODO list, but it requires my time and money for a new compiler.
This feature is currently not my top priority. Of course, as usual,
a sponsor could change my priorities...

Another option to improve the memory management could be LFH:

I will try to enable it in stunnel 5.00.
Since 4.53 I have fixed memory management bugs in configuration file
reload and protocol negotiations. You may try to upgrade stunnel if
you use any of these features.
