Switeck, I was trying to convey the meaning of the table information for newbies, perhaps I shouldn't have used the word optimum. Rather, based on the settings for your upload speed, the MAX Tor/DL values represent the max number of connections going at any one time while still keeping your upload and download speeds at acceptable levels. To put it less technically, the MAX values are the best you can hope for given the settings for your upload speed. Or am I completely off on this?
