5) Another data point, with
$ sysctl fs.inotify
fs.inotify.max_queued_events = 131072
fs.inotify.max_user_instances = 1024
fs.inotify.max_user_watches = 524288

(so max_queued_events 8x greater, and max_user_instances well above
previously established useful level), I still only get 19 containers.
and it still fails with a "Failed to change ownership of".

So if we want to get to 50 containers, it seems we need more than just setting 
the inotify limits.
I still plan on doing similar tests with Juju in the mix, as it is more likely 
to actually need user_watches than just launching a bare Xenial container.
