Mike and list, Mike, would you please explain why the surface area would be related to the number of threads? 1000 square miles or ~ 250.000 hectares in my units is big but not huge. We have a 7 million hectare vegetation inventory we're updating now. Do you have a bunch of small tiles? Are you

Yes I see a lot of threads. The more tne merrier, the faster the throughput. I am running an I9 9980XE with 18 cores. What having the threads running does is it allows computing to happen while I/O is running in the foreground. To make most efficient use of multiple threads the workload has
