The socket count can be generated directly with:

$ ls -l /proc/$(pgrep squeak)/fd | grep -c socket:

This can then be visually graphed every, say, 3600s with:

bars='======================================================+';
while true; do
	echo $bars | cut -c 1-$(ls -l /proc/$(pgrep squeak)/fd | grep -c socket:)
	sleep 3600
done

If this shows a monotonic growth, then a leak can be suspected.
