Re-execute the following command:
network_set_advanced_node_parameters {"desired_number_of_connections":100, "maximum_number_of_connections":200}

Backup your wallet.
Then try to remove all the files/directories except /wallets/ and /chains/ under .BitSharesx/.
Then launch the client again.

I saw the same. Version 0.2.4 went from 100 to 30 to 5 in three days. Had to shutdown node, restart, and change desired number of connections. Maybe a bug?

If you are losing connections over time that is certainly a bug.   Right now the recommended advice is to restart once per day.

I experienced exactly the same situation during the past hours.Several blocks had been missed before I realized.

Any log would be useful for you to analyse?

The p2p log right after it happens would be useful. 

This sounds like a resource leak that prevents new files from being opened.

I've sent you PM with all the details. Hope my simple analysis helps.
