Description
~~~~~~~~~~~
.. option:: -U #listeners
- This option tells :program:`named` the number of ``#listeners`` worker threads to listen on, for incoming UDP packets on
- each address. If not specified, :program:`named` calculates a default
- value based on the number of detected CPUs: 1 for 1 CPU, and the
- number of detected CPUs minus one for machines with more than 1 CPU.
- This cannot be increased to a value higher than the number of CPUs.
- If :option:`-n` has been set to a higher value than the number of detected
- CPUs, then :option:`-U` may be increased as high as that value, but no
- higher.
+ This option has been removed. Attempts to use it now result in a warning.
