[Insight-users] multi threading turn off switch

[Bitter, Ingmar (NIH/CC/DRD)]

Hi all,

charl p. botha already replied earlier suggesting:

itk::MultiThreader::SetGlobalMaximumNumberOfThreads(1);

It worked fine. Thanks!

-Ingmar

PS: the proper way to make sure everyone on the mailing list get to see the
end of an email tread is to include CC: insight-users at itk.org on the reply?

Hi Ingmar,


Yes, you just need to invoke

     filter->SetNumberOfThreads(1)

in the filter that you suspect to be
taking over your CPU.
