[Bug 1333325] [NEW] glance-api workers should default to number of CPUs available

 

Public bug reported:

The docs recommend setting the 'workers' option equal to the number of
CPUs on the host but defaults to 1.  I proposed a change to devstack to
set workers=`nproc` but it was decided to move this into glance itself:

https://review.openstack.org/#/c/99739/

Note that nova changed in Icehouse to default to number of CPUs
available also, and Cinder will most likely be doing the same for it's
osapi_volume_workers option.

This will have a DocImpact and probably UpgradeImpact is also necessary
since if you weren't setting the workers value explicitly before the
change you'll now have `nproc` glance API workers by default after
restarting the service.

** Affects: glance
