I don't see that setting in CDH manager, but the book says the default is 16. If that's true in CDH, that would mean we have 6*16 == 96 which is more than the number of connections we've had at any one point (our max was 72, and we saw decreasing marginal returns from adding more workers as early as about 16 to 20).
