Hello list,

the current implementation limits the number of threads to the number of available cores. I changed the code to allow +2 threads. This results in a much better throughput on my dual core machine (e.g. germany.osm.pbf is 100 seconds or 17% faster) with r190 + patchv7. What could be the reason for this limit?

I've no idea. The restriction should be removed in my opinion. ..Steve
