The risk is the rise in the maximum number of concurrent connections. A
server happily supplying 50,000 concurrent connections should not be
assumed to remain happy at 150,000 concurrent connections.

I am afraid that I have missed your point here. I am somewhat blinded by
the use of the word "independent". I have a statistical background and
that word carries a meaning similar to "unrelated".

Perhaps you could state your argument with more explanation

Thank you, Glen
