TCP ports are available - did the following while running "ab" against "python3.4 -m http.server":

 u1@~$ while true; do netstat -an|grep tcp|wc; sleep 1; done

51 TCP sockets in use.

Connecting from another client then blocks for some time (I hit enter multiple times) before showing "connected to localhost", then the request is answered:

 u1@~$ telnet 127.0.0.1 8000
 Trying 127.0.0.1...
 GET /

 Connected to localhost.
 Escape character is '^]'.

How do I trace in MacOSX? No truss or strace available...
