Ah, okay, this combines with idle cgroup detection to determine whether the cgroups should be allowed to exceed high limits. It makes more sense to me now. In that case, for the high/max limit range issues, the enforced high/max limits can simply follow what's implied by the configuration. e.g. if high=100 max=80, just behave as if both high and max are 80. > 2.

This part still seems weird tho. What am I misunderstanding?
