filecopy.num_workers
Background
This option is the maximum number of worker threads that will run during an update of a file system data source. These threads will perform any operation that does not involve interacting with the source file system e.g. filtering & storing files etc.
Setting the key
Set this configuration key in the search package or data source configuration.
Use the configuration key editor to add or edit the filecopy.num_workers key, and set the value. This can be set to any valid Integer value.
Default value
filecopy.num_workers=4This could be usefully increased if you have multiple cores on your gathering machine.
This value can be overridden by the gather.slowdown.threads setting if
a slowdown period has been specified.
