Using all threads of the computer

I sometimes share my DRC/LVS scripts between several computers. The number of thread to run in hierarchical mode is defined by threads(n).
How to define threads(all) to use all the threads of the computer ?

  • Hi Laurent,

    Well, I'd just use a high number like 16, provided your machine doesn't have more than 16 CPUs :)

    But frankly, multicore utilization is only good in tiled mode. Deep mode doesn't really benefit from parallelization as of now :(
