[labnetwork] High footfall in the cleanroom

[Iulian Codreanu]

Hi Savitha,

I would start by recalling where the maximum capacity of 50 came from. 
If it was determined based on a code (fire, building) you have to stick 
to it and look into strategies to spread out the work in the cleanroom. 
If it was not based on a code, I think you have flexibility in allowing 
70 users in at a given time if they do not "bump into each other".

Cheers,

Iulian
