> On my home box, Linux reports real cores and Hyper Thread cores the same way 
> (this has always been the case). While doing some benchmarks, I noticed even 
> a "multiplier" of 2.0x for the number of worker threads is too much for 
> optimal performance. In fact, on my box, a setting of 1.0x, yielding 8 worker 
> threads, yielded optimal performance.
> I think we might want to examine the CPU characteristics a little more 
> careful, and not count Hyper Thread "cores" as real core, and adjust the 
> number of worker threads only for real cores (or at least only give the HT 
> cores "partial" credit).
