largeVis function's "threads" argument gives no control over number of threads #55

Apparently, at least for Windows, the threads argument of the largeVis operates the same way no matter to what it is set. On my 4 core desktop, it always grabs all 4 cores to run, at least for a document-term matrix with 373 rows and 18000+ columns. I am running with 50 GB of memory available to R.

I managed to get it to pay attention to threads=2 just fine.
