SYNOPSIS
pueue parallel [-g group] [amount]
DESCRIPTION
pueue parallel sets how many tasks can run simultaneously in a pueue group. Each group has its own independent parallelism limit. If no amount is given, pueue prints the group's current value.Changes only affect scheduling of new tasks — already-running tasks are never stopped when the limit is lowered.
PARAMETERS
amount
Number of tasks allowed to run in parallel in the target group. A value of 0 means unlimited. Omit amount to query the current value.-g, --group NAME
Apply the setting to the named group instead of the default group.
INSTALL
sudo pacman -S pueue
sudo apk add pueue
sudo zypper install pueue
brew install pueue
nix profile install nixpkgs#pueue
CAVEATS
Setting 0 disables the concurrency limit entirely. Use pueue group to list groups and pueue status to view current limits.
HISTORY
pueue parallel is part of pueue by Arne Beer, providing task queue management with parallelism control.
