increasing threads for stdout?

[philsmd]

The main problem w/ more threads in stdout mode is that the bottleneck for this mode is indeed *the* stdout. What I mean is, the process of writing to stdout slows down the whole process group that much that it makes absolutely *no* sense to use additional threads.

So -n option w/ --stdout shoudn't be used since the number of thread will be automatically set/reduced to 3 anyway (because of the output bottleneck).
