Only 4 out of 24 logical threads/cores used
-
Reproduction steps: Run a selective scan of the C drive. Observe AVP CPU threads.
Actual result: Only about 4 out of 24 logical CPU threads/cores used. There are more threads created, but these do not process any files for the selective scan (4.16% = 1 core maxed out).
Expected Result: All 24 logical cores used, or at least the 12 physical cores (depending on SMT/Hyperthreading use).

@timur-born, hello!
It's by design. Scan has 4 running processes so 4 logical threads is enough. We don't plan to use all PC's resources for tasks,
