AutoParallelThreshold

Synopsis

[SQL]    AutoParallelThreshold=n

Description

The higher n is, the lower the chance that an InterSystems SQL query executes using parallel processing. The value n corresponds roughly to the minimal number of tuples needed in the visited map for parallel processing to occur.

When AutoParallel is disabled, AutoParallelThreshold has no effect.
