Nah. There's a difference between 30 requests on the same connection and
30 connection requests. The maxrequests value stuffs 30 requests into the
same connection. Ordinarily, HTTP is opens a connection, makes a request,
and then closes the connection. The maxrequests parameter sends the configured
number of requests on the same connection.
