$ grep maxconnections /var/cache/yum/*/metalink.xml
/var/cache/yum/fedora/metalink.xml:      <resources maxconnections="1">
/var/cache/yum/updates/metalink.xml:      <resources maxconnections="1">

Yum understands this.

Three connections limit is used when the above is not available
(e.g. a baseurl setup with just one mirror).  I don't mind lowering
it to just two, as that should work good enough in most cases.
