By adding a &, the command can be run in background,
but how many processes can actually be run in background?
i have hundreds of files to handle, want to minimized the time by separating and running them in background
i wonder if i have to check how many threads i have, however i am confused about the concept of threads..
when i cat /proc/cpuinfo:
cpu cores : 8
siblings : 16
does it means that i have 8 cores and 16 threads, but what does it means with
cat /proc/sys/kernel/threads-max
2063255
What are the threads here mean? and what about the answer here using top ?
i am so confused.. please help
