How does IIS count a connection?

I want to limit the number of people trying to connect to my web site at one time.

In Win Server 2003.. in IIS you can set the max web site connections. ( in properties of the web site, under "Preformance tab" )

I set the value to be 10 ( 10 is just for this question ). I then go browse to my home page, and using Preformance Manager ( prefmon ) I see that IIS created 2 connections. When I go to apart of my site that requires https, IIS create 4 more connections. So this single user has created 6 connections in about 60 seconds.

Question:
1) Is using the max web site connections in Preformance Tab a good way to limit people trying to connect to my web site?

2) If so, how does one know what creates an IIS connection.. that way if I only want 100 people to be able to hit the site, I know I will need 8X the number of connections...

Any thoughts would be great.
Thanks
