Heh.  That's weird that we were both looking at the same code so
many years down the line.

Still Haogang is assuming that MAXIMUM_NUM_CONTAINERS is supposed to
be a minimum instead of it just being used that way by mistake.
Mark is more familiar with code and thought it was supposed to be a
maximum.
