You don't seem to have any documentation for this, btw... :(

*Always* put units on these.  I know you mention it in a code comment,
but please also include it in the proc filename too.

In general, why do you have to control the number of these statically?
Shouldn't you just define a shrinker and let memory pressure determine
how many of these we allow to exist?
