You can set the desired concurrency level with the environment variable IM_CONCURRENCY, for example <p> example% setenv IM_CONCURRENCY 2<br> example% stats fred.v <br> <p> will run stats with enough concurrency to keep 2 CPUs fully occupied. If IM_CONCURRENCY is not set, then it defaults to 1. <h2><a name='sect3' href='#toc3'>Return Value</a></h2> All functions return 0 on success and non-zero on error. <h2><a name='sect4' href='#toc4'>See Also</a></h2> <a href='im_generate.3.html'>im_generate(3)</a> . <h2><a name='sect5' href='#toc5'>Copyright</a></h2> National Gallery, 1993 <h2><a name='sect6' href='#toc6'>Author</a></h2> J.
