Thank you for that . Also I think it depends on the server how many
threads it can support. Also 1 thing related to clean up ,
if we use curl_multi_cleanup why should we use curl_easy_cleanup
after that.

libcurl has no limit for this. Just be aware that most systems have a 1024
file limit and so does select(). If you just tread carefully you can easily
work around those and add lots of more handles.

I've personally used 9000 handles successfully... And I'm working on
curl_multi_socket() as an improved replacement for just that kind of
use-cases.

Nope. I know someone worked on a first shot at incorporating libssh2
support,
and I've personally been keen at doing it, but so far nothing of that kind
has
been added.
