Hi,
From the documentation, I can see that CURLMOPT_MAX_HOST_CONNECTIONS defaults to zero (unlimited).
From what I can see the number of connections to use to a single host has been severely debated in other forums,
and typically browsers is much more restrictive regarding the number of connections. It’s a bit difficult to
find definite numbers, but typically somewhere between 6 and 16.
Am I missing out something here? Or do I misunderstand something?
Is “unlimited” really a good default choice and will work safely with most servers?
(I /do/ see that in my use case it seems to max out to 64 connections, limited either by Curl or my use case.)
Regards,
Daniel
