Additional engine every (records)entry:ThiscontrolshowmanyMergeenginesare

usedforaContentCreationtask.Itmeansthatforeveryadditional'x'recordsinthetask,

anadditionalMergeenginewillbeused.

Forexample,withthedefault100recordthreshold,taskswith1-100recordswillbe

201-300getassigned3mergeengines,andsoon.

Thedefaultof100recordswaschosenpurelybecauseitisaneasilymultipliednumber,

notbecauseithasbeenproventohaveanysignificantvalue.Itmeansthatonanaverage

system(i.e.,lessthan10Mergeengines)anydecentlysizedtaskisallowedtouseall

Mergeengines.ItalsoassumesthatusingmorethanoneMergeengineforlessthan100

recordswillprobablynotmakeabigenoughdifferencetothroughputspeed.Obviously,

therearesituationswheretheseassumptionswillnotapply.

Note: Currently,it’sonlytheprintandPDFcontentcreationtasksthatusemultiple
