### maxInstances
Maximum number of total parallel running workers.

Note that it may be a number as high as `100`, when the tests are being
performed on some external vendors such as Sauce Labs's machines. There, the
tests are not tested on a single machine, but rather, on multiple VMs. If the
tests are to be run on a local development machine, use a number that is more
reasonable, such as `3`, `4`, or `5`. Essentially, this is the number of
browsers that will be concurrently started and running your tests at the same
time, so it depends on how much RAM there is on your machine, and how many other
apps are running on your machine.
