In a multi-threaded analysis, is particleCount global or per-thread? #9

In http://www.beast2.org/2018/10/01/nested-sampling2.html, it states that an analysis with threads=10 particleCount=8 will run 8 particles, in https://github.com/BEAST2-dev/nested-sampling/wiki/How-to-use-NS#multi-threaded-nested-sampling a run with threads=4 particleCount=1 is said to run 4 particles. This looks contradictory, maybe it's just confusing phrasing. Are particles counted in total or per thread?
