The director can't be sure that the inactive connections are 
expired. The director guesses based on timeouts. There could 
be 10 real active sessions if Act+InAct=10. Likely the InAct 
connections are in the process of exiting so probably are 
not using a lot of resources.

So set your limit to Act+Inact. If you find you can handle 
more, up the limit.
