Bug description:
  The worker-multiplier option is a convenience option that lets the
  users not worry about the number of CPUs specifically. However, in
  deployments where there are many containers running api services on
  the hosts, this results in way too many processes leading to high
  load.

  Unfortunately, the worker-multiplier option is specified as an integer
  value which does not allow a user to reduce this below the number of
  CPUs detected.

  A work around is to further spread the load to multiple baremetal
  machines and do not place all API services on the same machines.
