Sometime ago I started with 1000 and lowered it step by step until Igot rid of lag. Thus I think, you guys/girls are too conservative ;)
The problem is not lag. Lag issues must be solved by a good queue discipline in the kernel, like HTB.
I am speaking of sustained total download speed. I had good results at 400. but dl could drop. You should have tried continuing lowering it to see for yourself. Just try 100 for some time, you will see. Even 80 or 70 work nicely. The more you have opened connections at the same time, the more youactually download control data (including TCP retries because of choked connections), not actual contents.
PS: note that, with " max_opened_connections = 100", the mldonkey process has still 212 opened file descriptors on my machine.
