Per my experience(and seconded by local newspapers), crematoriums would allow the family to pick up the ashes on the next day. Assuming 8 hours for cremation(it takes less than that), this suggests that there was at least 2x the buffer available. Probably higher than that, as I've not seen(or heard of) all pyres being occupied at the same time. This means in places where there is shortage of pyres, deaths must be at least 3x the earlier one.
