Identifier: http_max_connections

Type

numeric

Description

The maximum number of concurrent internet connections to any remote web server.
By default, the Microsoft Windows operating system imposes a limit, and is typically 2. If more than 2 connections are requested, they are queued until the current connection count falls below 2, i.e. until one of the http requests has been satisfied.

This limit of 2 can be extended by changing the value of this identifier. This is only necessary when multiple asynchronous downloads to the same web server are being executed (refer to the httpget command).

Example

http_max_connections = 16
