Now it is optional because -t without arguments implies threads = max_cpus. I made some very minor edits to the wiki a little while ago to reflect this but the Wiki page does need to updated more, I think the usage file corresponds a lot more closely to the actual behaviour. crap, I see I left of the signed-off-by: John Kacur <jkacur@xxxxxxxxx> line on the patch, do I need to resubmit it?
