Concurrence defines how many curation threads should run at the same time (each one curating a different job). Curator performance is optimal when each processor on the machine has a curation thread. However, to allow other applications such as the SCP the processing time that they require, set the concurrency level to fewer than the number of processors.
On a single-processor system, the default concurrency level is set to 1. On a multi-processor system, the default concurrency level is set to the number of processors minus 1. For example, on a system with four processors, the default concurrency level is set to 3.
 | Note: Hyperthreaded CPUs should not be counted as real cores; for example, in the G6 server series, the hyperthreading is an option. |
To configure the number of concurrent Curator threads
Find the service reference value for Curator.
In CLUI, to check the concurrence on the machine running Curator, type
SELECT concurrency FROM map_service WHERE service_ref = Curator’s_service_ref
To change the default setting, type
UPDATE map_service SET concurrency = number_of_curation_threads WHERE service_ref = Curator’s_service_ref
Restart Curator.
