This doesn't work because "cores" are associated with physical dies whereas dev.cpu currently counts logical CPUs (scheduling entities ie cores). Also note that kern.smp.cpus is the total number of logical CPUs. If you have multiple multi-core processors then whatever.cores will be different to kern.smp.cpus --=20 Peter Jeremy Please excuse any delays as the result of my ISP's inability to implement an MTA that is either RFC2821-compliant or matches their claimed behaviour. --T6xhMxlHU34Bk0ad Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.4 (FreeBSD) iD8DBQFHjFh4/opHv/APuIcRArXmAJwNpNWcqQMe/PpsN3jlyZXJRtCiUACePEeY wu0NDBjtw8DUDH3nSVuumxQ= =CNaK -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --T6xhMxlHU34Bk0ad--
