which number to use when make the source
Asked by
ceguo
Hello everyone,
As described in FAQ #261, when make the source using make -j num during install process, num is said to be "the number of CPUs/cores." Is this the number of CPU divided by the number of core? For instance, in my condition which number should I use?
~$ cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "cores" | uniq
cpu cores : 4
~$ cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "physical id" | sort | uniq | wc -l
2
~$ cat /proc/cpuinfo | grep "processor" | wc -l
16
p.s. why here core number != processor number / physical number?
Regards
Ning
