+threads to execute the program. For example, you want to use 4 threads,

+        setenv OMPC_NUM_PROCS 4

+number of physical processors in your platform. The same number of
+threads are created as the number of physical processor. 
+In Linux and Solaris platforms, the runtime system checks the number
+of processors. Otherwise, the current version uses a compile-time
+constant N_PROC_DEFALUT (currently 4) in "ompclib.h" as the number of threads.

+ -- If the environment variable OMP_NUM_THREADS is set and its value
+is greater than the number of threads described above, the value of 
+OMP_NUM_THREADS is used as the max number of threads.
