 # For a quad-core machine, BB_NUMBER_THREADS = "4", PARALLEL_MAKE = "-j 4" would
 # be appropriate for example.
+#
+# Some users are behind firewalls or use servers where the number of parallel connections
+# is limited. In such cases you can limit the number of fetch tasks which run in parallel by
+# setting the option below, in this case limiting to a maximum of 4 fetch tasks in parallel:
+#
+#do_fetch[number_threads] = "4"
