Cruisecontrol 2.7.1 - Maximum number of Threads

[Khanna, Amit]

Hi,

        We are using Cruisecontrol 2.7.1. We are opting for multithreading option. I would like to know the maximum number of threads supported by cruisecontrol. This is what I got from the document but it does not give any approximate numbers as such

<threads>
<cruisecontrol>
  <system>
    <configuration>
      <threads>
The <threads> element can be used to configure the number of threads that CruiseControl can use simultaneously to build projects. This is done through the count attribute. If this element (or one of its parent elements) is not specified, this defaults to 1. This means that only one project will be built at a time. Raise this number if your server has enough resources to build multiple projects simultaneously (especially useful on multi-processor systems). If more projects than the maximum number of threads are scheduled to run at a given moment, the extra projects will be queued.

Attributes

Attribute       Required        Description    
count   Yes     Maximum number of threads to be in use simultaneously to build projects

Thanks
Amit

The practical limit on the number of threads comes from the hardware
you are your running and your configuration, not from the number of
threads CC can support.

For example, setting the number of threads > number of project is pointless.
