Thanks for the fix for the "too many connections" issue

Hi Shypike,

Thanks for fixing the "Too many connections" issue in 070 beta 5. I used to have very frequent Too many connection errors and often SABnzbd would from then on keep using less connections than configured. The only way to get the normal number of connections back was to re-start SABnzbd. I thought it was caused by my provider but beta 5 has completely solved this.

All of that because of a silly typo :(
Sorry.

Hi Shypike,

It appears that the issue is not fully fixed. I do not get any errors messages of Too many connections anymore but the number of ports now appears always to be seven instead of eight as defined in the server settings. See the picture below (thread 3 is missing here):

If I refresh the page, then another thread gets missing but always there will be only 7 threads.

I am not sure if this is relevant but whenever I choose the Status tab then I can see on my network switch that SABnzbd stops downloading till the page is displayed. This takes about 10 seconds or so. My PC is a AMD Athlon 64 3800+ 2400 MHz with 2 GB memory. This PC feels fast enough and it is only running SABnzbd. I have a very large download history and loads of files in the NZB backup folder. Could that cause the delay?

In case you would like more info, then please let me know.

Only with the Classic skin there will be trouble with very large histories.
The other will struggle if you display all of the queue or history (or large parts).
I wouldn't take the Status->Connections display too serious, it's not a very accurate snapshot.
