<p>
Sets the number of slices to use for a sliced database
environment. The value provided here must be a positive
integer. However, for any performance benefits to be
realized through the use of slices, this value should be
greater than 1. For best results, set this value equal to
the number of available cores.
</p>
<p>
The syntax of this parameter in the <a href="../../programmer_reference/env_db_config.html#env_db_config.DB_CONFIG" class="olink">DB_CONFIG</a> file is a
single line with the string
<code class="literal">set_slice_count</code>, one or more
whitespace characters, and the number of slices that you
want to use.
</p>
<p>
If slice support is not configured for the database at
compile time, then this parameter is ignored. In addition
to this parameter, Db handles must be open with
the <code class="literal">DB_SLICED</code>
flag in order for the database to be sliced.
</p>
<p>
If the database environment already exists when this parameter is
changed, it is ignored. To change this value after the environment
has been created, re-create your environment.
