Providing just another dataset:
I disabled all the core on my multicore box but one.
Here is how it looks now:
-bash-4.2$ sysctl hw.ncpu
hw.ncpu: 1
-bash-4.2$ sysctl -a | grep cpus
kern.sched.cpusetsize: 8
kern.smp.maxcpus: 64
kern.smp.cpus: 1
security.jail.param.cpuset.id: 0
-bash-4.2$ sudo kldload hwpmc
Password:
-bash-4.2$ pmcstat -p instructions -w 1 ./sin
