Connections on the varnishbox

[Eivind Bengtsson]

Do I understand you correctly

I need to set -p thread_pool_max = 1500
How many thread pools do I have ? (default?)

Howcome I can have more than 1500 connections now, without changing the 
Thread_pool_max ?

The only change I've made is to ulimit -n 131072
(which is default in the debian etch 1.1.1 package ...)

Thanks again for any help :-)
