I think I made it do the following many years ago:

	check sequentially all filesystems with 1
	check parallel all filesystems with 2
	check parallel all filesystems with 3
	check parallel all filesystems with 4
	...

But I can't remember if that ever got committed...

Never attribute to malice what can adequately be explained by incompetence.
