AFAIU, the original requester wanted to test the OVS behavior
on a very small system while using a larger system.  And it's
a bit inconvenient since OVS is creating threads based on the
actual number of cores in a system, hence consuming much more
memory.

All in all, I don't think there is any real use-case where we
absolutely need to change the number of threads manually.
