Descrizione

when searching across multiple devices, cpu utilization is rarely the bottleneck but rather io is.

an option to scatter the search targets of threads would speed up search massively when searching in /media/ for example across multiple external harddrives.

they may share a data link but its their latency and responsiveness that is the bottleneck. and can be exercised in parallel.
