I know it must be possible to make Galaxy use more of the resources available to it but I haven't been able to figure out how. If galaxy is calling python scripts, it only seems to use a single processor to do so. We have an 8 core machine and if other binaries are spawned then they get other processors no problems, but any of the python operations though seem to operate on the same processor no matter how many of these 'python based' jobs are running i.e. If i run 5 tools simultaneously, I would expect allocation to make use of all available processing resources. Is there some config to make this happen? I am sure I am missing something basic. Cheers
