First, detecting HT vs cores is not necessarily possible in general, Linux may
assign core id to each HT depending on circumstances:
$ grep 'cpu cores' /proc/cpuinfo | uniq
cpu cores : 32
$ grep 'model name' /proc/cpuinfo | uniq

Dear all,
I recently noticed that `detectCores()` ignores the `logical=FALSE`
argument on Linux platforms. This means that the function will always
return the number of logical CPUs, i.e. it will count the number of threads
that theoretically can run in parallel due to e.g. hyper-threading.
