I honestly don't know I saw it under someone's config on the forum: http://kb.monitorware.com/performance-throughput-issues-rsyslog-t11865.html
When I first started doing this project, and I just ran with it, after cleaning up the config I just happen to notice it, and looked it up, and could not find it. I did see that there is a "TCP max sessions" so I just figure I ask, and if didn't apply I would remove from the config.
