>
> Currently, we assign remaining parfor parallelism conservatively to
> operations of the parfor body. Consider, for example, a Kmeans or MSVM
> scenario with 10 runs or 10 classes respectively. On a box with 16 HW
> threads, we assign k=10 to the parfor and {{floor(16/10)}} to remaining
> operations. Since it is usually a good idea to slightly over-provision CPU in
> order to get full utilization (due to barriers at the end of each operation),
> we should tune this to {{round(16/10)}} which provides performance
> improvements of about 15% in above examples.
