If your app can handle the resources, then no.

Every handle can have CURL_MAXCONNECTS connections alive.

Demonstrate what? You mean a program that uses 20 handles? The multithread.c
example uses 4 threads but you could easily make it use 20. The multi-double.c
example shows how to download 2 simultanoes transfers using a single thread.
That too could easily be made to use 20, 50 or 200 instead.

You mean that particular setopt option? I think that if you only want to
change one option between the invokes, then I think you should change only
that.
