Because of this, I'd like to propose to add getCores(), which by default returns what detectCores() gives, but can also be set to return what is assigned via setCores(). The idea is this getCores() could replace most common usage of detectCores() and provide more control. An additional feature would be that 'parallel' when loaded would check for command line argument --max-cores=<int>, which will update the number of cores via setCores(). This...
