CURLMOPT_MAXCONNECTS(3) 				     curl_multi_setopt options					   CURLMOPT_MAXCONNECTS(3)

NAME

       CURLMOPT_MAXCONNECTS - set size of connection cache

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLMcode curl_multi_setopt(CURLM *handle, CURLMOPT_MAXCONNECTS, long max);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass  a long indicating the max. The set number will be used as the maximum amount of simultaneously open connections that libcurl may keep
       in its connection cache after completed use. By default libcurl will enlarge the size for each added easy handle to make it fit 4 times the
       number of added easy handles.

       By setting this option, you can prevent the cache size from growing beyond the limit set by you.

       When the cache is full, curl closes the oldest one in the cache to prevent the number of open connections from increasing.

       This option is for the multi handle's use only, when using the easy interface you should instead use the CURLOPT_MAXCONNECTS(3) option.

       See CURLMOPT_MAX_TOTAL_CONNECTIONS(3) for limiting the number of active connections.

NAME

       CURLMOPT_MAX_HOST_CONNECTIONS - set max number of connections to a single host

SYNOPSIS

       #include <curl/curl.h>

       CURLMcode curl_multi_setopt(CURLM *handle, CURLMOPT_MAX_HOST_CONNECTIONS, long max);

DESCRIPTION

       Pass  a long to indicate max. The set number will be used as the maximum amount of simultaneously open connections to a single host (a host
       being the same as a host name + port number pair). For each new session to a host, libcurl will open a new connection up to the	limit  set
       by CURLMOPT_MAX_HOST_CONNECTIONS(3). When the limit is reached, the sessions will be pending until a connection becomes available. If CURL-
       MOPT_PIPELINING(3) is enabled, libcurl will try to pipeline if the host is capable of it.

       The default max value is 0, unlimited.  However, for backwards compatibility, setting it to 0 when CURLMOPT_PIPELINING(3) is 1 will not	be
       treated as unlimited. Instead it will open only 1 connection and try to pipeline on it.

       This set limit is also used for proxy connections, and then the proxy is considered to be the host for which this limit counts.

DEFAULT

       0
