Giuseppe -
Interesting! I'm not sure about the parallelized node operations, but I also confess that I'm not sure if you're wanting to keep all of your cores busy, or if you're wanting to restrain BaseX from using too many cores. If you're leveraging GNU parallel to control a BaseX instance, I assume you're using `-j|--jobs` to set a limit on the number of BaseXes.. BaseXen? BaseXeses... :) launched.
Would you be able to share an example of how you're approaching your problem? Someone may be able to give suggestions based on it. Best, Bridger

Hi Bridger,
I am not using xquery:fork-join. If I understand correctly, some operations on nodes are parallelized automatically by BaseX. If the same script is then run in parallel on different files, I get all my cores busy.

Hi Giuseppe - Hope you're well. Did you try adding the `parallel` option to xquery:fork-join? See https://docs.basex.org/main/XQuery_Functions#xquery:fork-join - if not specified, then BaseX will be greedy :)
Best,
Bridger

Is there a way to specify how many parallel processes Basex 11 is allowed to spawn (I am not using the database)? In combination with GNU parallel, it becomes difficult to have control on parallelism.
