From f654f0040be5872a7fe21226dc7ed424abf55fb9 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "Wladimir J. van der Laan" Date: Thu, 6 Nov 2014 08:52:32 +0100 Subject: Change -genproclimit default to 1 This is less surprising. Avoids the overload-the-CPU default of using N threads for script verification as well as N threads for generation where N is number of cores. --- src/init.cpp | 4 ++-- 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) (limited to 'src/init.cpp') diff --git a/src/init.cpp b/src/init.cpp index 158713b321..22ec80e17b 100644 --- a/src/init.cpp +++ b/src/init.cpp @@ -320,7 +320,7 @@ std::string HelpMessage(HelpMessageMode mode) strUsage += ".\n"; #ifdef ENABLE_WALLET strUsage += " -gen " + strprintf(_("Generate coins (default: %u)"), 0) + "\n"; - strUsage += " -genproclimit= " + strprintf(_("Set the processor limit for when generation is on (-1 = unlimited, default: %d)"), -1) + "\n"; + strUsage += " -genproclimit= " + strprintf(_("Set the number of threads for coin generation if enabled (-1 = all cores, default: %d)"), 1) + "\n"; #endif strUsage += " -help-debug " + _("Show all debugging options (usage: --help -help-debug)") + "\n"; strUsage += " -logips " + strprintf(_("Include IP addresses in debug output (default: %u)"), 0) + "\n"; @@ -1263,7 +1263,7 @@ bool AppInit2(boost::thread_group& threadGroup) #ifdef ENABLE_WALLET // Generate coins in the background if (pwalletMain) - GenerateBitcoins(GetBoolArg("-gen", false), pwalletMain, GetArg("-genproclimit", -1)); + GenerateBitcoins(GetBoolArg("-gen", false), pwalletMain, GetArg("-genproclimit", 1)); #endif // ********************************************************* Step 11: finished -- cgit v1.2.3
