What I need is to get a limited number of jobs into the running state *per invocation*. This needs not to be ticket-dependent; for assorted other reasons that's not going to work for us just yet. Additionally, that limit needs to be somewhat lower than the queue capacity so that several runs can be started simultaneously without queuing all their jobs. Trying to change the parameters of the problem doesn't work - I can't just tell them they need to buy more computers, and I can't just tell them they need to change their expectations of when the jobs will run; either of these approaches will just lead to the abandonment of the exercise. ...Which is where we came in...
