  How long do database writes take?  How many writes can you do
simultaneously?  How many packets/s does the server get?

  Generally, you should have as many SQL sockets as threads.  Any more,
and they won't be used.  Any less, and the threads might starve.

  The LDAP && SQL modules really need to move to a dynamic connection
pool.  It would be much easier for the administrators.
