Hi, I was looking at [Parameter throttling documentation](https://docs.orangeqs.com/juice/core/v26.19.1/tutorials/basics/parameter-monitoring-and-throttling.html) and wanted to ask what is meant by pausing execution of an experiment:

Based on the configuration which is shown in the documentation, it is not clear to me what actually happens on throttle. How would it know which experiment to stop, or where it is running?
