# NumParallel

The maximum number of threads to use for running the object detection task.

If you are processing video with `IngestRate=1`, using more threads means that Media Server can process a greater number of frames. This can increase detection accuracy because Media Server can track objects across multiple frames and run object detection on multiple images.

If you are processing video with `IngestRate=0`, using more threads means that Media Server can complete processing the video in less time.

Note: The number of `process` actions that you can run simultaneously is determined by the parameter MaximumThreads (or Threads if you run the actions synchronously). `NumParallel` specifies the maximum number of threads to use for an object detection task that runs as part of a `process` action. Be aware that if you increase the value of `NumParallel`, Media Server can use many threads.
