The next claim started at half a batch of four pipeline rounds a lane,
3-6 s of work, while a claim takes 1.5-4 s and more; at 20-24 lanes the
lanes waited for candidates up to 19% of their time. queueLevels: the
claim starts below eight rounds of every lane's pipeline (~13 s) and
fills the queue to twice that. Taken candidates go back to waiting at
start-up as before, so a bigger queue costs nothing on a restart.
