We don't specifically cap user analysis, we cap the number of jobs
running with group atlas (as opposed to group sgmatlas or prdatlas),
which has the affect of capping user analysis amongst other things
Maui does this for us with the MAXJOB option to GROUPCFG
Our LAN has an identifiable bottleneck that can (hopefully) be removed
with some downtime, so our limit may be raised or removed in future.
