Rather than looking at connections, you should be looking at the average
number of active queries you have in your db. That should give you a fair
idea about the number of connections required.

As for number of connections supported, you will have to give more details
on the specs of underlying hardware, and if its a dedicated db server or
sites alongside other services.
