Why be so stingy.  Bump MAXUSERS.  From my (admittedly scanty) reading
of the source, this is the most improtant parameter there is.  I set
ours to 64+ on anything that will be having more than casual use.

It doesn't mean you expect that many users, it means you'll need that
many resources and a lot of the system resources are defined in terms
of it.
