TFTP is a light weight protocol.
If you are expection limits,
expected them elsewhere then in the TFTP deamon of hpa.

If you foresee many simultaneous TFTP connections,
then give your server much CPU power and much memory.
Beware for network switches being bottle necks.


Oh, if you just want to known who is the record holder of simultaneous
TFTP connections, then ask so.  Ask also for his/her set-up.

And surely take time to communicate.


Hope this Helps
