what about the number of threads setting. why is the default value 6 & does tweaking that make any difference? ( to when calibre is given say 10+jobs to be getting on with )

As far as I know, Calibre only has at most as many worker threads active as there are CPU cores. The other threads idle away, I think.
For reference purposes: I have just started Calibre, and I have the default settings concerning threads. My process manager shows one instance of calibre.exe and two instances of calibre-parallel.exe, I haven't interacted with the program at all, and the server isn't running either.
