App::OS::Detect::MachineCores - Detect how many cores your machine has (OS-independently)
version 0.037
On different system, different approaches are needed to detect the number of cores for that machine.
This Module is a wrapper around these different approaches.
This module will install one executable, mcores, in your bin.
mcores
It is really simple and straightforward:
usage: mcores [-?i] [long options...] -h --help Prints this usage information. -i --add_one add one to the number of cores (useful in scripts)
darwin (OSX)
Linux
During development of dotfiles for different platforms I was searching for some way to be able to transparantly detect the number of available cores and couldn't find one. Also it is quite handy to be able to increment the number by simply using a little switch -i.
-i
Example:
export TEST_JOBS=`mcores -i`
