This calculation divides a fixed parameter by an environment-dependent parameter i.e. the number of CPUs.
The simple way to avoid machine-specific failures here is to just put a cap on the max value of the latter.

Won't have time to send v4 for a few days so I'll just note here: this shoudl be nr_thread = nr_cpus. This causes a division by zero on machines with less than 30 CPUs.
