Subject: Multithreading by default
|
|
References: bsc#1036223
|
|
Upstream: v0.8.17
|
|
Git-commit: 07534f44546e37c65a08fe7fb093255fbca6cd30
|
|
|
|
The "--num-threads" and "--split" makedumpfile options are mutually
|
|
exclusive. Before multithreading was implemented, "--split" was the
|
|
only way to use any additional CPUs. It makes more sense to use
|
|
multithreading by default.
|
|
|
|
To use "--split", the SPLIT flag can be specified.
