Comments about the monitor cache:

There are actually 16*3 monitors in the default monitor cache in alphas
2 and 3 (count = MONITOR_HT_SIZE * 3 in monitorCacheInit()).  Still, if
you're out, your're out!  In the beta, the monitor cache will be dynamically
expandable, only limited by available memory.
