The DansGuardian documentation states that the maxchildren limit is 250 but that it depends on the OS. On ClearOS, the max FD_SETSIZE is set to 1024, so maxchildren can be set to 1018 or lower.

To go above the 1018 limit, it looks like it would require internal changes to DansGuardian. The select() call is used and this can support up to FD_SETSIZE. The select() implementation would have to be changed in order change the limit.
