It means exactly what it says.

Notice how "NTLM" is not "redirector".


N=5 redirectors running, R=15 requests queued in a queue that is only
allowed to grow to R <= 2xN length.


If you have such a high load that 1500 NTLM authenticators are
necessary, its a bit odd that 150 winbind helpers are sufficient to cope
with the matching group lookups. 5 SG helpers are obviously not enough
for the total traffic either way.
