yes, and as Salaboy says, there is no real throtteling. They are all created at once. But if you make the work in them async (you should!!) then the jobscheduler can be used to throttle them, or the enterprise scheduler. You could also put messages in your own queue and do some more advanced throtteling over there. But combining this with the MultiChoiceForkAH is certainly the way to go.
