描述
**Description:**
I am running a micro-ROS agent in a Docker container using the prebuilt image (humble) on a Raspberry Pi 5. I have several ESP32 devices with micro-ROS (Humble). When I attempt to connect more than five devices to the agent, I experience connectivity dropouts, where some devices fail to stay connected. With 5 devices, they are successful in subscribing to topics.
I suspect this issue might be related to the configuration flags in the micro-ROS build, particularly those related to client and resource limits. I came across the following parameters:
- `RMW_UXRCE_MAX_CLIENTS`
- `RMW_UXRCE_MAX_SUBSCRIPTIONS`
- `RMW_UXRCE_MAX_SESSIONS`
- `RMW_UXRCE_MAX_NODES`
- `RMW_UXRCE_MAX_PUBLISHERS`
- `RMW_UXRCE_MAX_SERVICES`
- `RMW_UXRCE_MAX_WAIT_SETS`
- `RMW_UXRCE_MAX_GUARD_CONDITION`
- `RMW_UXRCE_MAX_TOPICS`
These parameters seem critical to configuring the agent, especially as I'm dealing with multiple devices where each subscribes to three topics. I suspect increasing the `RMW_UXRCE_MAX_CLIENTS` value might help, but I'm not entirely sure.
**What I've Tried:**
- I attempted to experiment by manually setting `RMW_UXRCE_MAX_CLIENTS` to 1 (as a test), but it did not yield the expected results, as multiple clients could still connect.
- I've tried searching through the documentation, including [Vulcanexus](https://docs.vulcanexus.org/en/latest/rst/tutorials/micro/memory_management/memory_management.html#:~:text=RMW_UXRCE_MAX_NODES%20%3A%20Maximum%20number%20of%20micro,Default%20value%3A%204) for guidance, but I haven't been able to solve the issue.
**Question:**
In order to adjust these flags and rebuild the micro-ROS agent from source, do I need to modify the build configuration in the following file?
- [`src/micro_ros_setup/config/host/generic/client-host-colcon.meta`](https://github.com/micro-ROS/micro_ros_setup/blob/jazzy/config/host/generic/client-host-colcon.meta)
Or should the changes be made in this file instead?
- [`src/uros/rmw_microxrcedds/rmw_microxredds_c/CMakeLists.txt`](https://github.com/micro-ROS/rmw_microxrcedds/blob/jazzy/rmw_microxrcedds_c/CMakeLists.txt)
I believe the latter might be where the flags should be set, but I'm uncertain. Has anyone else experienced similar connectivity issues when connecting more than five devices to a micro-ROS agent on Docker? If so, how did you resolve it?
(I've also noticed a colcon.meta file in the /src folder of my workspace, should the be used?)
Any guidance on where exactly to set the flags for a manual source installation would be greatly appreciated - Or even the correct approach to setting up an agent to allow for more than 20 clients!
Thanks in advance for your help!

调研方向
首先比较 src/micro_ros_setup/config/host/generic/client-host-colcon.meta、src/uros/rmw_microxrcedds/rmw_microxrcedds_c/CMakeLists.txt 和 workspace 的 /src/colcon.meta。在收集 agent 和 client 日志的同时,使用超过五个 ESP32 设备重现掉线问题。确定正确的配置路径,并且经过测试的设置能够支持预期的 client 数量而不发生连接掉线,即表示完成。
