Our app uses *ah-builtin-python-module* for backup. Backups are configured 
to execute quickly. We noticed that there are several (6) idle instances 
allocated to *ah-builtin-python-module*. We believe that the high instance 
count is caused by automatic scaling. The algorithm expects the next spike 
of activity caused by regular backup jobs and leaves some instances idle to 
reduce initial request latency. In the case of backups we don't really care 
about request latency.

The question is: can we configure *ah-builtin-python-module *to spin down 
instances quickly like we do with the default service?

Backup queue config:

- name: backup
  mode: push
  rate: 100/s
  bucket_size: 20
  target: ah-builtin-python-bundle

Default service config:
automatic_scaling:
  max_concurrent_requests: 32
  max_idle_instances: 1
  min_idle_instances: 0
  max_pending_latency: "100ms"
  min_pending_latency: "30ms"
