What is the default behavior of monerod concerning the --max-concurrency flag?

MLSAG adaptation?

I understand that the main reason why the RCTTypeFull scheme is not applied to multi-input transactions is that the true signing keys in the MLSAG algorithm are on the same row, which impacts traceability (one input identified, all identified). Has…
