Quando o faço, cat /proc/cpuinforecebo as seguintes informações impressas abaixo. Posso concluir com essas informações que existem 8 núcleos na minha máquina? Estou interessado em fazer alguma programação paralela usando OpenMP, que supostamente usa todos os núcleos da CPU para fazer alguns cálculos.
Existem 8 desses processadores listados nas informações (que presumo que signifiquem núcleos). Mas estou confinado porque existe um campo em cada bloco que diz cpu cores 4.

Responder1
Puramente por causa do OpenMP, sim, você pode assumir com segurança que tem 8 threads disponíveis. Por mais realista que você deva ler a linha
núcleos de CPU: 4
Sob cada informação do núcleo da CPU. A razão pela qual você está vendo 8 processadores é que você tem uma CPU Quad Code com Hyper Threading. ou seja, 4 x 2 = 8 fios.
Responder2
Um i7 960 possui 4 núcleos. Existem 8 threads porque cada núcleo é hiperencadeado. Mas apenas 4 núcleos FÍSICOS. 8 núcleos virtuais.
