The "Maximum Simultaneous Connections" setting for theThrottle Module sets thenumber of simultaneous connections per zeus.web child process. By default, there is only one zeus.web child processper processor - you will need to take account of this when settingthe maximum value on multiple processor machines.
The reason for this is that by default, Zeus starts one child for each processor (this being the most efficient option for mostsetups), and each process limits the number of simultaneousconnections to the specified value.
If for some reason you should want to force Zeus to run on only oneprocessor, refer to our tuning guide, forinstructions on how to set the "num_children"tunable to "1".
