@jcoffland:
"When the max connection limit is enabled and the limit is reached, the
server will respond immediately with 503 Service Unavailable. This can
be used to prevent servers from running out of file descriptors. This is
better than request limiting because clients may make more than one
request over a single connection. Blocking a request does not
necessarily close the connection and free up a socket."
