iControl connection limit?

My SLB applicatioin works based on Java iControl library.

 

Many people use it simultaneously. I'm wondering, how many iControl concurrent connections possible when application requests are crowded.

  • iControl is single threaded meaning it only allows a single request in at a time. It is designed this way to avoid internal conflicts if two request are making similar changes to the underlying configuration. The requests are slotted into a first-in-first-out queue so they will get processed when ones ahead of them have completed.
