3.
Set the Parallel engines per job for medium and large Print jobs; small jobs always get
one engine. You cannot assign more engines than the total number of engines launched.
4.
Do the same for the Weaver engine.
5.
Click OK or Apply.
Note
When each individual record in a job is composed of a very large number of pages, the Memory
per engine setting and the machine's hard drive speed are probably more important than the number
of Merge engines, since one record cannot be split over multiple cores (see "Memory per engine"
on page112).
Number of speed units per Print job
If a Print job of a specific size has more than one parallel speed unit assigned to it, that
multiplies its speed, however it reduces the number of Print jobs that can be run
simultaneously.
When no other Print output operations run at the same time, a single job will get all available
speed units, or the maximum number of speed units reserved for jobs of that size (see "Dividing
processing power over jobs" on the next page).
To set a number of speed units per Print job:
1.
Select Window > Preferences... from the menu.
2.
Under Scheduling, select Weaver Engine.
3.
Set the Parallel speed units per job for medium and large Print jobs. Small jobs get one
speed unit. You cannot assign more speed units than what you have available according
to your licence.
Note
Keep in mind that when there aren't enough speed units available at the moment a
job comes in, the job will have to wait.
