i just read now a article about hardcoded scaling on linux, which is a maximum of 8 cores (or maybe even threads?) a few days ago also read that the cpu scheduler get’s an overhaul so i hope they fix this issue, too.

yes it shows you the cores, that’s not the question but does the scheduler use them all or is he throwing the tasks between the cores which results in more latency/overhead to switch also the level1 or 2 cache inbetween. i running also linux for more then 5 years know, but it really would be a game changer if you not use all potential of all cores you have on your rig … i really want to believe it, because that would have a great impact on mutlicore systems
