The set number will be used as the maximum number of simultaneously open connections in total using this multi handle. For each new session, libcurl will open a new connection up to the limit set by \fICURLMOPT_MAX_TOTAL_CONNECTIONS(3)\fP. When the limit is reached, the sessions will be pending until there are available connections. If \fICURLMOPT_PIPELINING(3)\fP is enabled, libcurl will try to pipeline if the host is capable of it. .SH DEFAULT The default value is 0, which means that there is no limit. It is then simply controlled by the number of easy handles added. .SH PROTOCOLS All .SH EXAMPLE TODO .SH AVAILABILITY Added in 7.30.0 .SH RETURN VALUE Returns CURLM_OK if the option is supported, and CURLM_UNKNOWN_OPTION if not. .SH "SEE ALSO" .BR CURLMOPT_MAXCONNECTS "(3), " CURLMOPT_MAX_HOST_CONNECTIONS "(3), "
