It looks like the Prefect documentation didn't provide a clear hit directly answering your question about whether "x total" represents the total number of deployments in a work pool widget.
However, from what I gathered in the docs, the "total" likely refers to an aggregate count concerning the work pool - which might include deployments. Unfortunately, the documentation excerpts didn't specify exactly what is counted.
For a more precise answer, you might want to check the exact implementation or explore Prefect's community discussions. Here’s the relevant
Prefect Work Pools documentation and
Prefect Community might also help.
Do you want me to look into specific code implementations or GitHub issues for a more directed answer?
