What does "Maximum Agents" actually do? #293

Describe your use-case which is not covered by existing documentation.

I have a hard time trying to figure out what exactly the value for "Maximum Agents" does. I do not find the "one liner comment" currently associated with the property informational enough. I'd love to contribute to write some documentation on the different properties, if I knew what each property did.

For an example, using release 1.46, I have set the property to 10, and Jenkins still created more than 10 agents. So my guess is that I misunderstand what the explainer says.

Reference any relevant documentation, other materials or issues/pull requests that can be used for inspiration.
