How do I define multiple concurrent connections an agent.py worker can support?

Thanks for reaching out, Matt. I'm an AI assistant and I'm here to help. Give me a moment while I research this topic.
To define multiple concurrent connections that an
agent.py
worker can support, you can configure this through the
WorkerOptions
class using load management parameters. Using WorkerOptions for Concurrency Control The
WorkerOptions
class provides parameters to control how many concurrent agent instances a worker can handle:
Copy code
opts = WorkerOptions(
    entrypoint_fnc=your_entrypoint,
    # Function that reports the current system load (CPU, RAM, etc.)
    load_fnc=your_load_function,
    # Maximum load value - above this, new processes will not spawn
    load_threshold=your_threshold_value,
    # Other options...
)
How Worker Concurrency Works • Load Monitoring: The
load_fnc
parameter allows you to define a function that reports current system load (whether CPU, RAM, or other metrics). • Load Threshold: The
load_threshold
parameter sets the maximum value of your load function—above this threshold, new processes will not spawn. • Automatic Load Management: When a worker experiences high load, it stops taking on new sessions and notifies LiveKit's server. System-Level Concurrency LiveKit's dispatch system is optimized for high concurrency and low latency, supporting hundreds of thousands of new connections per second with dispatch times typically under 150ms. The framework automatically handles load balancing across available workers in the pool. Example Implementation Based on the
agent.py
example, you would configure concurrency when calling `cli.run_app()`:
Copy code
if __name__ == "__main__":
    cli.run_app(WorkerOptions(
        entrypoint_fnc=entrypoint,
        load_fnc=your_custom_load_function,
        load_threshold=your_desired_threshold
    ))
The specific implementation of
load_fnc
and
load_threshold
values would depend on your system resources and desired concurrency limits.

Hey there! Let me help you understand how to configure concurrent connections for
agent.py
workers. I've got some awesome documentation links that'll make this super clear. • Worker Options Documentation: Want to know how to manage your worker's concurrency like a pro? Check out this section that breaks down cool parameters like
load_fnc
and
load_threshold
. You can dive into all the details at Worker Options Documentation. • Worker Lifecycle Documentation: Curious about how workers juggle multiple jobs? This section is your go-to guide for understanding process isolation and load balancing. Swing by Worker Lifecycle Documentation to get the full scoop. Trust me, these resources are packed with practical examples that'll help you set up and manage worker concurrency like a champ!
