> In the future, perhaps the concept of a worker slot will disappear.
I had the same thought. Myself, I thought of slots as "logical resources"
necessary only because we did not have another way of managing resources.
> Just for more clarification the eviction policy works independently of
the number of slots. The eviction policy will be evaluated every time cannot be
scheduled regardless the reason (i.e. run out of slots or run out of resources).
Great, sounds good.
> @d2r thank you so much for your detailed review!
