[edit] Defect Type Description

This defect type is intended to cover defects related to the failure to scale the code to a large number of processes/threads. Amdahl's law represents the best possible scale-ups depending on the fraction of the sequential code. In real programs, a certain amount of the code is executing sequentially, and codes fail to scale because that limits how much it can scale.
