largeVis function's "threads" argument gives no control over number of threads

Closed this issue 6 years ago · 2 comments

Apparently, at least for Windows, the threads argument of the largeVis operates the same way no matter to what it is set. On my 4 core desktop, it always grabs all 4 cores to run, at least for a document-term matrix with 373 rows and 18000+ columns. I am running with 50 GB of memory available to R.
