[Swift-user] slots in sites.xml

  Hello,
     In the sites entry below I set slots to be 100.  I thought this 
would have coasters start 100 workers submitted to the fast queue.  Is 
this the proper way to ask for 100 workers on PADS.  When I check all 
jobs submitted to PADS it tell me I have 51.  That is queue jobs + 
running jobs.  Is my site entry wrong?
