Swarm Client not using all CPU cores/threads

I’ve managed to configure two PC’s on my local network to run together during a lightmass build. The coordinator is an Intel i7 quad core (8 threads), the secondary PC has dual Intel Xeon Hex-cores (total 12 cores 24 threads).

The issue is that the secondary PC only ever uses 5 or 6 out of its 24 threads during a network build. I’ve tried this on both simple and heavier projects with no change.

If I do a standalone build on the 12 core PC, it will use all 12 cores/24 threads.

The 12 core PC has nothing else running besides the Swarm Agent…what can I do to force the client to use all/more resources?

Actually I’ve already answered you on the other thread. I’m pasting it here :).

That’s a known issue. It’s already fixed, but it hasn’t make it into 4.7. If you’re using source version from GitHub you can merge that change yourself (link to the commit) or wait for 4.8.

same problem at 4.9.2! Looks like fix wasn’t included in update.
