The  option may be set either directly under , as a default for all services, or may be set for a named     to affect solely that named. Upon startup, the Dispatcher will create this many detached processes to start its pool. When an old such process expires, the Dispatcher will ensure that there are at least this many available processes (by creating a new process, if necessary) in the pool for this service.
