SERVER: IS "RESERVERDCORES" IN DAYZSETTINGS.XML NEEDED FOR THE SERVER OR NOT ? CAN IT BE SET TO 0 ?
New, NormalPublic

Description

The DayZ Server documentation of BI says:
"reservedcores - number of CPU cores which will be used for other threads"

-> Do you mean "OTHER THREADS" by the OPERATING SYSTEM or the DEDICATED SERVER ?

-> There is no information to be found for the exact use of "RESERVERDCORES" in DAYZSETTINGS.XM anywhere on the internet!

-> IS "RESERVERDCORES" NEEDED FOR THE SERVER OR NOT ? CAN IT BE SET TO 0 ?

Setting 0 or any other number for RESERVERDCORES in DAYZSETTINGS.XML has no measurable effect on the server whatsoever.

Additional Information

The DayZ Server documentation of BI says:

XML Configuration

dayzsettings.xml
<jobsystem globalqueue="4096" threadqueue="1024">
<pc maxcores="4" reservedcores="1" />
<!--

		maxcores - maximum number of CPU cores which will be used for jobsystem
		reservedcores - number of CPU cores which will be used for other threads

		number of worker threads is then "maxcores - reservedcores", but still at least one worker thread is allocated
