Description Michael Catanzaro 2023-08-25 11:59:35 PDT 
A long time ago, web browsers limited themselves to fairly small maximum connection limits. Nowadays, Chrome uses 256 and Firefox uses 900, but we still have a 17 connection limit established in 170917@main. I picked 17 for no other reason than that was what other browsers were doing at the time. That reasoning is as good now as ever, so let's increase.

Well I was planning to create a pull request for this, but I'm unable to do so due to bug #260726.
