is the maximum number of threads the SPD Engine can spawn. The range of valid values is 0 to 65,536. The default is zero, which means that the SPD Engine uses the value of THREADNUM= if set. Otherwise, the SPD Engine sets the number of threads to spawn to be equivalent to two times the number of CPUs on your computer.
