It looks like this uses hw.ncpu to determine the number of cores. Can you make this cpuset friendly by querying the current process's CPU mask and counting the cores it contains instead? Somethign like: cpuset_t set; cpuset_getaffinity(CPU_LEVEL_WHICH, CPU_WHICH_PID, -1, &set, sizeof(set)); (I have a CPU_COUNT() macro I should commit that will then let you do:) ncpus = CPU_COUNT(&set); -- John Baldwin
