2*batch IMO).
I agree that this watermark is little low at this point.  But that is
mainly because currently we don't have a way to drain the pcps for low
memory conditions.  Once I add that support, I will bump up the high
water marks.

Can you share a list of specific workloads that you ran earlier while
fixing these numbers.
