You find the definitions in src/const.h:

#define PER_SOURCE 5
#define MAX_SESSIONS 50
#define MIN_DELAY 50

PER_SOURCE connections are allowed from one source address within a time
interval of MIN_DELAY seconds. MAX_SESSIONS is the absolute limit to the
number of connections within a time interval of MIN_DELAY seconds.

Have fun,
Erik
