I think we want to keep Start* as the number of processes to start, because
otherwise, we have to deal with people asking for 30 threads to start, and 25
threads per process. In that case, we would have to tweak their values. I would
prefer to do that as little as possible.

How would you do that? We want the range, so that we don't have to kill
of servers unless we have too many. I guess my only complaint with a single
directive, is that it is removing control. Instead of being able to say, leave
between 5 and 10 processes waiting idle, we have to say leave 8 processes
waiting idle.
