Comment (by arma):

 Replying to [comment:16 teor]:
 > I don't think we should fail if ConnLimit_ is lower than MaxSockets: why
 not just log a notice message, and use ConnLimit_?

 Use ConnLimit for what? As the min or as the max?

 I'm still thinking we shouldn't add this feature. We periodically have
 people who want this sort of thing, and if they set it and it gets
 triggered, they are being a bad relay. Why are we offering them a way to
 be a bad relay?
