The idle=1 parameter "Sets a minimum ..."

It actually is quite expensive to start them. At least one client is
being held in a pause waiting for it, and others are slowed down while
the CPU spawns the process.

Chances are high that the next day, or even a few seconds later you
will need to use them again anyway. So its a bit better to have them
idle than to discard completely.

*Particularly* since you have no concurrency for the helper. A single
client loading a page with many objects can initiate many parallel
requests. Each of which will need to be processed by one of those helpers.
