That's because this rule matches on connection count >2000 with mask 0 => so results in: more than 2000 connections to anywhere

the second limit is for log action only.

I do wonder why the follwoing iptables rule does fire more often than expected althought there're much less (<100) new outgoing Tor exit connections within 1 second at my Tor exit relay:

/sbin/iptables -A OUTPUT -p tcp --destination-port 443 --syn --match connlimit --connlimit-above 2000 --connlimit-mask 0 --connlimit-daddr --match limit --limit 1/second --limit-burst 1 -j LOG
