Ah. I guess that I wanted the number of cores. If, as you say, half the CPUs is enough to occupy all resources, then I'd probably use something like @parallel(ncpus=os.environ.get('SAGE_NCPUS') or 2) so that at most 2 (or another small number) parallel processes are created, unless the user requires otherwise, by setting an environment variable.
