I don't see a problem in increasing OPEN_LINKS parameter ... there is no downside.

Hey, if developers need data from 5 remote sites you have two choices ...

Set open_links to any value > 5
Have your developers write code like

for I in 1 .. 5 loop
open (i)_link

      fetch_data;
   close (i)_link;
   process.

Developers won't like options 2, and I agree that it will be way too difficult to ensure concurrency anyways.

change open_links to its current value + 10 and bounce the instance.
