Let us enter a custom amount of cores > than real CPU threads for best performance

Hi,

It would be nice if we could enter a custom amount of threads that SQX uses, beyond the number of the threads of our CPUs. Reason is this: the CPU load is not 100% all the time and hence resources are not optimally used, even if setting the maximum amount of threads in SQX, CPU usages jumps between 14% and 100% steadily as SQX waits for threads to finish calculating (and some tax the CPU more than others). Hence, if we could set more threads than we have CPU cores/threads, we could make sure that we can max out the CPU all the time completely, without launching extra SQX instances. It should not be the default option, of course, but it would be nice if we´d have that option for experienced users and if we simply could enter a custom amount of threads, independent from the threads of our CPUs.
