Number of cores minus two


Process count: Indicates the number of Worker Processes to spawn. Positive numbers specify an absolute number of Workers. Negative numbers specify a number of Workers relative to the number of CPUs in the system. like this: {<number of CPUs available> minus <this setting>}. The default is -2.
