I have 3 other pools (1 XS6.2sp1 and 2x xs65sp1)  I have no issue with
these.

Based on the Design doc, what i was experiencing is by design. Ok I will
turn it off.

But now my question is, why on 4.3 I didn't have this issue but after
installing 4.3.0.2 it changed.

Was 4.3 broken or is 4.3.0.2? Will upgrading to CCP 4.5.1 will be better?

If this is truely by design, I will not be able to use dynamic scalable for
my windows instances
