MAXIMUM_NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS - speeds up XDS by use of several (e.g. 2-4) CPUs within a single machine.  
[http://www.mpimf-heidelberg.mpg.de/~kabsch/xds/html_doc/xds_parameters.html#MAXIMUM_NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS= MAXIMUM_NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS] - speeds up XDS by use of several (e.g. 2-4) CPUs within a single machine.  


MAXIMUM_NUMBER_OF_JOBS - speeds up XDS by chopping the DATA_RANGE into pieces, and feeding each piece to a new process. That process may run on the local machine, or a different one (but this needs to be configured by the system administrator). Unless you know what you are doing, use MAXIMUM_NUMBER_OF_JOBS=1 - or at least don't set ''both'' MAXIMUM_NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS and MAXIMUM_NUMBER_OF_JOBS to values >1!
