Now, for the implementation of ProcessorCount I've got code here that
reads the amount of processor cores from `/proc/cpuinfo` (linux only I

that *tries* to get the amount of cpu cores by the use of CPUID. The

In the general case, you have to be careful with this since (a) every architecture puts different info in /proc/cpuinfo and (b) the processor numbering and affinity vectors can have gaps.

ncpus probed    : 12
ncpus active    : 12
