Firms that (don't) fill their FT class with summers?

Some firms (e.g. Greenhill, PWP) seem to leave some space at the top for milk and sugar when it comes to hiring SA vs. FT, but others (e.g. BX) generally hire as many summers as they expect first year analysts FT. What funds typically under-hire SAs versus filling their class?
