Running 10.9.5 on 3.7Ghz Quad-Core:


$ /usr/sbin/sysctl -n hw.physicalcpu

$ /usr/sbin/sysctl -n hw.logicalcp
second level name logicalcp in hw.logicalcp is invalid

Thanks, but it is hw.logicalcpu we need to check.

sysctl on 10.11 has options which would enable us to differentiate

however these are not documented in Apple's online man pages, which
are for 10.9.  Could someone running 10.9 and someone for 10.10 report if

/usr/sbin/sysctl -n hw.physicalcpu
/usr/sbin/sysctl -n hw.logicalcpu

run in a terminal work and gives the correct result?  (Normally the
second will be twice the first taking account of hyperthreading.)

Thanks in advance.
