I just used the instructions here[0], with some minor changes (pathnames, db server, etc). I've never seen more than two tesseract processes running on my two-core VM, no matter how many documents I give it.

Maybe something changed at some point to limit the active workers to the number of cores.

I wonder if there was a change in celery that limits the number of active workers to the number of cores. This is the behavior I see on my instance.

That could explain it, it would be a nice addition
