Why some servers such as JBoss have Minimum Instance Cache Size in
1) Stateful Session Bean
2) Entity Bean
After studying lifecycle of this beans I don't see how it is possible the
cache can have more beans in it than it is needed by clients.

1. Create an instance. (In response to request.)
2. Instance services request.
3. Instance is returned to pool to await further request.

If there is an initial burst of activity followed by lower activity, the
instance pool will likely contain idle instances.
