* This limitation applies to all versions and editions of SQL Anywhere target databases and servers.
The actual limit is 101 connections when you count the connection from Foxhound itself.
** This limitation does not apply to SQL Anywhere version 5.5, 6, 7, 8 or 9 target databases and servers.
Also, it applies to the number of physical processors as given by the NumPhysicalProcessorsUsed server property,
not the number of logical processors shown by "Using n CPUs" value in the Foxhound Database Monitor.
For example, a single Intel Pentium 4 processor counts as 1 physical processor even
though the separate HyperThreading units may show up as "Using 2 CPUs". Similarly, a single Intel Core2 Quad
processor also counts as only 1 physical processor even though it may show up as "Using 4 CPUs".
*** This limitation does not apply to SQL Anywhere target databases and servers earlier than version 11.0.1,
which is when SQL Anywhere introduced the notion of different editions.
