I am currently deploying pov-ray on a system with 8 physical cores, however
when executed, povray will only use 2 threads to render the entire image.
Is there some .ini file I need to edit or some commandline parameter to
enable more threads when rendering?

Please note this is the wrong group for this question; follow-up set to
povray.beta-test.
There is also the "Work_Threads=n" INI setting as mentioned in the release
notes for beta.16 (beta.14 introduced this setting without the underscore).

"deploying"? lol: sounds military. You mean "using"? ;)
