Looks like you are reaching the max memcap in Stream5.  You can
increase
this value in your snort.conf file.

While we're at it, what's the difference between segments and bytes?

Sep 29 21:44:19 snort[31322]: S5: Session exceeded configured max segs
to queue 2621 using 2621 segs (server queue). 70.196.8.120 1079 -->
<ext_ip> 443 (0) : LWstate 0x9 LWFlags 0x6007

Sep 29 22:30:28 snort[31290]: S5: Session exceeded configured max bytes
to queue 1048576 using 1048817 bytes (server queue). <int_ip> 1134 -->
<int_ip> 445 (0) : LWstate 0x9 LWFlags 0x6007

And do I set that in global under max_tcp or memcap, or under tcp
small_segments?  Thanks all.

James
