Increase "Task Cap" max value

[nicksma]

Dear OctopusDSC team,
we are facing an issue with setting the Octopus "Task Cap" to 100 using OctopusDSC. The code limits the maximum to 50. May we ask to increase the maximum allowed value to at least 100 please?

• Current code: cOctopusServer/cOctopusServer.psm1#L1649 (PullRequest)

Explanation:
The documentation states that "Task Cap" has the default value five and "This should be increased with caution" (link).
We are running an OctopusDeploy instance with task cap set to 100 for a long period without facing performance issues. This installation is now managed using OctopusDSC. That forced us to shrink the value to 50 which is not sufficient in our environment.

Hello @matt-richardson,

It looks like you were involved in the code change that set the "Task Cap" limit to 50. Therefore, your comments here would be much appreciated.

Please could you offer some assistance to solve this issue?

Thanks so much in advance for working on this!
