Dear Hinda!

According to the picture 7 (Analysis step2) of the manual, we limit the number of threads to 8.
Could you explain please, why the number is 8 and what does in mean?

Best regards,
Maria

Hello Maria
The number of threads is automatically detected, it is based on the number of cores your computer has; you can reduce that number if you want the software to take less computation power away from other tasks you are performing.
This is explained further in the faq: lrmixstudio.org/faq
#------
What does “number of threads” mean?
LRmix Studio relies on parallel processing, and the number of threads is the number of processors the program uses to run the computations. This number is automatically detected, for example, if this number is two (depending on the computer), this means that you can spread the calculations on the two processors of the computer. If you don’t limit the number of threads, this means that all of  your computer’s power will be used by LRmix Studio, and if you are using other software such as Word, then these might be slow to respond. In summary, if you are only running LRmix Studio, don’t do anything, if you are using your computer for LRmix  Studio and other programs, reduce the number of threads by one, so that LRmix Studio runs in the background.

Best,
H.
