They are explained in man page as well as in README.
There is a sample configuration file as well.

You can compile it it with -g (make debug=1 optimize=1) option,
allow core in your shell by:
#ulimit -c unlimited

get the core, inspect it and, hopefully, to find the bug.

I was using this option with -t 2 and -t 4.

I'd recommend to try it equal to the number of effective CPU cores.

Thank you for your patch very much! I'll look at it at my free timeslot.

My understanding is that proxy authentication using passwords from file is not
supported for all other methods as well (Digest, Basic, etc)

>From what I mem, NTML is only recently started to be supported in libcurl
that curl-loader is using for multiple connections.
What is the number of connections it works for you?
