    Why is this fixed to two threads? You can use http://qt-project.org/doc=
/qt-4.8/qthread.html#idealThreadCount (like you did to even decide if you w=
ant to use threading) spread the sorting over the number of threads availab=
le.

If more than 100 items to sort and ideal thread count is greater than 1 -&gt; sort them with parallelSort \

Use maximal 2 Threads, because more than 2 Threads are &quot;slower&quot; (more overhead than speed up). \
