'Max WebRTC connection using RTCDataChannel

I want to make/experiment with a P2P network running on browsers (WebSocket and WebRTC for inter-browser communication) as well as on servers for signaling using WebSockets.

I read online that the max WebRTC connection is theoretically 256 on Chromium, but only around 6 practically. Most resources mentioned WebRTC with video calls, therefore, what is the practical limit using RTCDataChannel which consumes less bandwidth, at least in my use case?
