Is there guidance on the setting for the number of parallel executions for Harvest Batch Loads?

When using the BRAPi.Utilities.ExecuteFileHarvestBatchParallel function in an Extender BR, does anyone have any guidance and/or opinions on the proper setting of the parallelBatchCount parameter? 



My understanding has always been to set it to a maximum of the number of CPUs - 1 , available for the server performing data management or batch load processing.

    Please review our findings below:
    1. Raise a Case
    - Max Parallelism = the number of Servers' CPU Cores



    Max Parallelism = the number of CPU Cores (32 Cores for our Servers)

    2. Trial and Error
    Run: parallelBatchCount = 16, 18, 20, 22, 24, etc.
    - Our tests showed that jobs ran longer when parallelBatchCount >= 20.
