Thanks for the good FAQ.  I have to strenuously disagree though with calling 
all the scheduler complaints a red herring.

It's legitimate complaint and mindbogglingly simple to fix by giving users a 
control called Max-Instances instead of Max-Idle-Instances.  Right now we 
have to play all these stupid tuning games to keep the scheduler from 
fanning things out in unsustainable ways.  If we could just set a hard limit 
we could make sure it never fanned out past a certain level of instance 
parallelism.  It's such a freaking easy thing to fix but Google doesn't want 
to do that for whatever internal reason.

Sigh...
