isaac-sort-reference: still no (user) control over CPU usage #3

Closed sklages closed 6 years ago

Hi,

creating an index with isaac-sort-reference is still "problematic" in a shared computing environment. Using all CPU cores in general if needed is not a very "social approach".

I'd like to have control over (at least) CPU cores to be used for the whole index creation process. That includes other programs as well (if they they grab all CPUs).

Control over memory is just another "feature" request. Sth. like:

--maxCPU
--maxMEM

This is valid for isaac2/3.

best, Sven
