	To be clear(er): _without_ consumption policies, we would expect 
that the EPs will _eventually_ average out to the correct value.  _With_ 
consumption policies, then we would expect the initial allocation to be 
fair(er), and subsequently not to drift as far from that fair(er) 
allocation due to randomness in job lengths.
