Hi Brice,

Well, the VPS gives me a 4-core slice of an Intel(R) Xeon(R)
CPU E5-2620 node, which is Sandy Bridge EP, with 6 physical
cores, so probably 12 cores on the node.  The numbering does
seem wacky: it seems to describe a node with 2 8-core CPUs.

This is the VPS on which I host my Web site; I use its shell
account for sundry testing, mostly of build procedures.

Is there anything I could do to get hwloc to work?

Regards,

Max
