In this case, hook of the / etc / R / Rprofile.site would be best

local({
  if(require("RhpcBLASctl", quietly=TRUE)){
  if(Sys.getenv("OPENBLAS_NUM_THREADS")=="" &
     Sys.getenv("OMP_NUM_THREADS")=="")
        blas_set_num_threads(1)
  }
})

$ OMP_NUM_THREADS=4 R -q -e 'library(RhpcBLASctl);blas_get_num_procs()'
> library(RhpcBLASctl);blas_get_num_procs()
[1] 4

maybe confusion would be minimal.

I often forget to have set it...orz
