I would like to run more than 16 threads using the custom transformer in parallel on one machine. If I read the documentation, that is not possible because there is a limit to the number of processes available for FME licenses – in my case it is 16.

Do we have in the FME licensing some trick which will allow us to connect two licenses to the FME client machine and by that use 32 threads with the custom transformer?

I have never heard of any such possibility, but hopefully someone from Safe can chime in if it exists.

Otherwise I'd look into using FME Cloud, if possible.

If not, you may want to look into FME Server using dynamic engines, a solution which was made with such scenarios in mind: https://www.safe.com/pricing/fme-server/
