I'd like to see an option (with an RPC interface as well) to limit the number of connections that a Bitcoin client accepts. My home client is connected to 70 different nodes and my poor wimpy router just can't keep up. It's starting to slow my network down, to the point where I'll need to force Bitcoin to ignore connection requests (with -connect=<a node>) if this keeps up.
A connection limiting option would be a great alternative.
