What you're looking at is allocation of multiple apps inside of nodes in a cluster. With a JIT Server in each node, the memory required for each instance of the app is reduced, such that the effect is more instances can be fit in the same node size than before.
It reminds me of "bonuses" on equipment in RPGs. You lose 1 equipment slot to have it taken up by the item, but in return the rest of your equipment gets a bonus that more than makes up for the slot you can't use now.
