Hi Lambertus,
Specifying or specifically not specifying? I'm confused: What should be done to get one thread on a single core machine, or two threads on a dual core?
Use --max-jobs. To summarise: If --max-jobs is not specified, you get 1 thread no matter how many cores you have. If --max-jobs is specified, you get as many threads as you have cores. If --max-jobs=N is specified, you get N threads. The help blurb says this in another way. Cheers, Mark
