Static usage

[Davide D'Amico]

Hi, I'm using nginx-0.7.64 on FreeBSD 7.2-p4 amd64 server (Dell R200, raid1 sata disk, 4gb ram)
I enabled server status with:

 location /status {
  stub_status on;
  access_log   off;
  allow 172.16.16.0/24;
  allow 172.16.7.249;
  deny all;
}

to see how many connections I can manage.

Using cacti to display statistics I saw that I have a max value of: 
600 clients active
12 clients reading
63 clients waiting
600 client writing

The question is: is it the best I can with this server and this configuration?

Thanks in advance,
d.
