Allow special value 0 for os_process_limit
------------------------------------------
Key: COUCHDB-1282
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1282
Project: CouchDB
Issue Type: Improvement
Reporter: Randall Leeds
Assignee: Randall Leeds
Priority: Trivial
It's unlikely to be beneficial to run more os processes than there are logical
processors in a system. It creates extra scheduling overhead if they are all in
use. Currently default.ini specifies 25, though the code specifies 10 if the
option is missing, and I expect both are too high for many real world
deployments.
I propose the value 0 be used in default.ini and that it take special meaning:
use the number of logical processors erlang detects.
