Note that the nowait limit is purely optional. I just put that in there
since you said it was only for admin purposes. That will keep the
resources down to a reasonable amount on the off-chance something starts
respawning or freaking out. I doubt you would need more than 10
simultaneous sessions, but if you do, raise the limit or remove it
completely.
A better solution if you need lots of terminals is to use X-forwarding, in
which case you need to add the following to /etc/hosts.allow:
sshdfwd-X11: <your LOCAL ip address>
which will allow you to forward X-11 packets over the ssh tunnel.
If you find yourself opening and closing tons of sessions all the time,
the overhead of spawning the keys will eventually bog you down. :)
