title: ServicePointManager.DefaultConnectionLimit in Worker Role
body: <p>Just learning about Windows Azure at the moment.</p>
  
  <p>I'm looking at a few samples and in the 
  OnStart Event of a worker role I see</p>
  
  <p>ServicePointManager.DefaultConnectionLimit = 5;</p>
  
  <p>I do not understand the relevance of this.</p>
  
  <p>In your worker role, you can set the number of instances so surely this limits the number of entries?</p>
  
  <p>Sorry I'm confused.</p>
