	This is a <emphasis>very</emphasis> advanced <citerefentry><refentrytitle>smbd</refentrytitle>
	<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry> tuning option to improve the efficiency of the 
	granting of oplocks under multiple client contention for the same file.
	</para>
		
	<para>
	In brief it specifies a number, which causes <citerefentry><refentrytitle>smbd</refentrytitle>
	<manvolnum>8</manvolnum></citerefentry>not to grant an oplock even when requested if the 
	approximate number of clients contending for an oplock on the same file goes over this 
	limit. This causes <command moreinfo="none">smbd</command> to behave in a similar 
	way to Windows NT.

	DO NOT CHANGE THIS PARAMETER UNLESS YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD THE SAMBA OPLOCK CODE.
