IU_KEYTHREADS

Number of key threads

WTSupported in traditional Synergy on Windows
WNSupported in Synergy .NET on Windows
USupported on UNIX

 

The IU_KEYTHREADS environment variable specifies the number of key threads.

The number of key threads, in the range 1 – 32. The default is the number of keys, up to 32.

Due to isutl enhancements made in Synergy/DE 11.1.1d, running isutl on large files with many keys performs faster than in previous versions, but it also requires more disk space. Setting IU_KEYTHREADS to a value smaller than the number of keys causes isutl to run in smaller batches (based on the number chosen), which will consume less disk space. However, it may not perform quite as fast, as it rereads the entire data file (.is1) multiple times.
