Goal

On PeopleTools 8.40 - 8.54 when an app server domain is created in psadmin utility with template parameter "developer" like:
    psadmin -c create -d <domainname> -t developer ...
then the Publish & Subscribe part of the generated configuration source file (psappsrv.cfg) contains two processe types, PSMSGHND and PSMSGDSP.

But if the selected template is any of the other options, that is "small", "medium" or "large", like:
    psadmin -c create -d <domainname> -t small ...
then Publish & Subscribe contains six process types: PSBRKDSP_dflt, PSBRKHND_dflt, PSSUBDSP_dflt, PSSUBHND_dflt, PSPUBDSP_dflt, PSPUBHND_dflt.

Why do those configurations differ, what is the purpose behind this difference, when to choose "developer" template on domain creation and when one of the other templates?
