The reality is that there are many machines like that, though. I have also seen docker images that run on only one core, but where "ncpus" still reports all the cpus on the host machine. I don't know what the right default is, but I think there are many situations where "ncpus" isn't it. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-devel" group.
