Twisted: UDP socket not closed.

Hi.

I have to send UDP packets very often. Approx twice in a second.
But socket is not closed after sending packet. So soon i bump into
open sockets\files limit.
How to close socket after sending data?

Python 2.5, Twisted

class DataClient(DatagramProtocol):

    def __init__(self, address, datagram = "PONG"):
        self.address, self.datagram = address, datagram

    def startProtocol(self):
        self.transport.socket.setsockopt(socket.SOL_SOCKET, \
                socket.SO_BROADCAST, True)
        self.transport.connect(self.address[0], self.address[1])
        self.sendDatagram()

    def sendDatagram(self):
        self.transport.write(self.datagram)
        debug("Data client: Sending to %s" % repr(self.address))

while True:
    clientprotocol = DataClient(("255.255.255.255", 5999), data)
    reactor.listenUDP(0, clientprotocol).stopListening()
