GStreamer uses _SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF to determine 'max-threads'. On the Steam Deck, this is configured to be 16 (which is double its number of logical cores). _SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF also disregards a process's CPU affinity, thus it can create more threads than is useful, which ultimately wastes memory resources. Using affinity to set 'max-threads' addresses both these problems. -- v8: winegstreamer: Set MAX_THREADS to 4 for i386. winegstreamer: Use thread_count to determine 'max-threads' value. winegstreamer: Use process affinity to calculate thread_count. https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/5923
