> The {{queue.maxparallel}} setting (how many concurrent threads can run for a given job queue) currently supports a fixed number of threads or -1 which means "as many CPU cores present on the machine". The latter is in our case used as a crucial default, but it's too aggressive, since it might take over all CPU processing.
> Since every machine has different numbers of CPUs and cores, it would be useful to express this config as % of number of CPU cores. This allows for example for a default setting of 50% that should work well on different machines without having to manually configure it on each instance.
> This could either be a separate setting or (better) maybe allow floating point numbers between 0.0 and 1.0 to express the percentage for the existing {{queue.maxparallel}}. E.g. 0.5 means 50% of the cores. If it's an integer, continue to use it as an exact number of threads to use.
