The number of pvedaemon worker processes is currently hardcoded to 3. This may not be enough for automation-heavy workloads that trigger a lot of API requests that are synchronously handled by pvedaemon.
Hence, read /etc/default/pvedaemon when starting pvedaemon and allow overriding the number of workers by specifying MAX_WORKERS in this file. All other values are only relevant for pveproxy/spiceproxy and thus ignored. Signed-off-by: Friedrich Weber <f.we...@proxmox.com> --- Notes: I'm not sure if reading /etc/default/pvedaemon, which was not used until now, is a good solution here, but I decided to go for it because it seems relatively straightforward and analogous to pveproxy. Also here, I decided against setting max_workers directly directly in %daemon_options, to avoid having to call read_proxy_config already then. If I understand correctly, overriding $self->{max_workers} in init should be fine because it's only used in PVE::Daemon's $server_run after init was called.
