hi yi,

in swift.properites file you set

foreach.max.threads=1024

to

foreach.max.threads=N

where N is the max number concurrent jobs you want per swift session.
Also when you set score to be ridicuosly high (ie 10000) you always
get the maximum theoretical number of jobs you want based on the
throttling parameters.

According to swift Document: Each site is assigned a score (initially 1), which can increase or decrease based on whether the site yields successful or faulty job runs. The score for a site can take values in the (0.1, 100) interval. The number of allowed jobs is calculated using the following formula:

Anyone have any idea of that?
