Oracle iPlanet Web Proxy Server 4.0.14 Configuration File Reference

SOCKS5_WORKERS

The SOCKS5_WORKERS setting tunes the performance of the SOCKS server by adjusting the number of worker threads. Worker threads perform authentication and access control for new SOCKS connections. If the SOCKS server is too slow, you should increase the number of worker threads. If the server is unstable, decrease the number of worker threads.

The default number of worker threads is 40. The typical number of worker threads falls between 10 and 150.
