Add maxtasksperchild parameter on ParallelEvaluator method #182

Closed AleZonta closed 2 years ago

AleZonta commented 4 years ago

Addition of maxtasksperchild parameter on ParallelEvaluator method. This enables to set the number of tasks a worker process can complete before it will exit and be replaced with a fresh worker process, to enable unused resources to be freed. Had to modify this to stop memory leaks from happening when a great number of processes are used on limited memory computers.
