Set Maximum Parallel Processors

Determines the number of processors used by functions that are parallelized. If set to -1 (max_procs=-1), the default, all available processors will be used. To limit processing, set max_procs to a positive whole number less than the number of system processors.

Usage

wbw_max_procs(max_procs = -1)

Arguments

max_procs

integer Number of processors to use. Use -1 for all available processors, or a positive integer to limit processor usage.

Examples

if (FALSE) { # \dontrun{
raster_path <- system.file("extdata/dem.tif", package = "wbw")
x <- wbw_read_raster(raster_path)

# Use 1 processor
wbw_max_procs(1)
system.time(wbw_slope(x))

# Use all available processors
wbw_max_procs(-1)
system.time(wbw_slope(x))
} # }
