Controlling threading from the command line

Adaptive Server Anywhere can use multiple operating system threads to handle requests. This allows different requests to run simultaneously on separate CPUs. Each request runs on a single thread and no request is executed concurrently on multiple CPUs.

For a list of options that control threading, see Controlling threading behavior.
