I was thinking of an additional option that would automatically decrease -n so that the requested number of processes is started (then of course the load may not be well balanced).So you mean, rather than the current situation of: $ yes . | head -n13 | xargs -n4 -P2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . xargs could try to distribute like: $ yes . | head -n13 | xargs -n4 -P2 . . . . . . . . . . . . .
No, more like seq 1 13 | xargs --parallel -P4 1 5 9 13 2 6 10 3 7 11 4 8 12 (Note there's no -n). Same for seq 1 13 | xargs --parallelon a 4-core machine. This is _by design_ rearranging files, so it requires an option.
