Has anyone else played with this? It doesn't appear to work quite as intended...
sim_run_num_threads 1 does indeed run one thread.
sim_run_num_threads 2 runs two threads and displays
Parallel Processing Status
Parallel task limit for current run: 2
Parallel task limit for current platform: 64
Number of processors detected automatically: 8
All the other options (half, all_but_2, all_but_1, all) appear to run on the full 8 cores (4 physical with hyperthreading):

Are these options being compared to the 'platform' limit of 64, perhaps?
Creo 2.0, M120.
Solved! Go to Solution.
Reproduced by PTC (within an hour or two!), and reported to R&D as SPR 4833736.
The workaround is to use the Windows environment variable (not config option) MEC_NUM_THREADS.
This appears to be the old version of the option, but is the one that works!

Hello,
There is some information on the following links.
Best regards.
Denis.
Thanks Denis - although I don't understand the relevance of the Microsoft link to a PTC product.
sim_run_num_threads is the option that is now documented in the Help (and doesn't work as expected); the thread I linked (dated 2009) suggested that MEC_NUM_THREADS was for "older versions" of the software, so I shouldn't be having to use it in Creo 2.0 (although it's useful that it still works).
