Used to control slow start of servers, this will exponentially increase its
limit over a period of time until max is reached. Servers use this to gradually increase the
number of allowable open connections during the first few seconds of startup,
which can help alleviate thundering herd problems due to JVM warmup.
Initializing a limiter with initial equal to max will essentially disable any slow ramp
