Should we change SimFactory to do this automatically (as default) when OpenMP is enabled?
I have to admit that I usually do use the --num-threads option, but I know that simfactory already has the information how many threads it should use if openmp is enabled. Isn't that the default? I was under the impression that this was enabled some time ago? A quick look at the code didn't reveal a default of 1 to me.
Simfactory uses 1 thread by default, ignoring the MDB entry. This is for historic reasons only. I believe it is time to change this.
