I had many other tasks, they did not get done by when I needed them. 2 were really important. I know I could prioritise the order but a failsafe timeout would be great.
There are preferences that control use of CPU(cores), Priority and number of threads.
More/bigger is not always better (unless we are talking RAM to run in )
