+## Parallel Scan/Generation
+
+#### Number of parallel task for scan/generation
+
+This setting controls how many sub-tasks will be run in parallel during scanning and generation tasks. (See Tasks)
+
+Auto-detection can be enabled by setting this to zero. This will calculate the number of parallel tasks to be cpu_cores/4 + 1.
+
+This setting can be used to increase/decrease overall CPU utilisation in two scenarios:
+1) High performance 4+ core cpus.
+2) Media files stored on remote/cloud filesystem.
+
+Note: If this is set too high it will decrease overall performance and causes failures (out of memory).

+
+`SizedWaitGroup` has the same role and API as `sync.WaitGroup` but it adds a limit of the amount of goroutines started concurrently.
+
+`SizedWaitGroup` adds the feature of limiting the maximum number of concurrently started routines. It could for example be used to start multiples routines querying a database but without sending too much queries in order to not overload the given database.

+)
+
+func main() {
+        rand.Seed(time.Now().UnixNano())
+
+        // Typical use-case:
+        // 50 queries must be executed as quick as possible
+        // but without overloading the database, so only
+        // 8 routines should be started concurrently.
+        swg := sizedwaitgroup.New(8)
+        for i := 0; i < 50; i++ {
+                swg.Add()

+                        defer swg.Done()
+                        query(i)
+                }(i)
+        }
+
+        swg.Wait()
+}
+
+func query(i int) {
