Antoine Pitrou added the comment: The current os.cpu_count implementation calls sysconf(_SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN), which is apparently defined under OS X, and returns the number of online CPUs (logical?): https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/Darwin/Reference/ManPages/man3/sysconf.3.html
multiprocessing has been modified to re-use os.cpu_count(), so I suggest closing this issue as out-of-date. ---------- nosy: +pitrou _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17444> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
