Measured on the three-VM cluster with ha1's CPUs loaded: 38 of 60 requests
refused with both judges and the starter on ha1, each engine on all four
cores. With the judges moved to a 4-core, 32 GB node at 2 cores each, 2 of
60 were refused, both the first after the judges started.
init now reserves cores by this machine's count: one per judge replica
under 8 CPUs and two from 8, and the rest, up to 8, for the starter on CPU.
The starter reserves nothing when nothing is left, so it still fits. Judges
bound for nodes not yet known get two each. A judge reserves 4 GB; it uses
about 3.2.
