What problem does it create to use all cores?
- LawTalkingGuy 4y agoIt's for non-server machines which will be running other things like the user's browser. You won't get the same performance on the shared cores so sometimes it's better to just run on the free ones, and without checking/adjusting it's just easier to use n-2 cores. In a production environment you do want to eliminate the other processes.
- Kiro 4y agoThanks. What does n-2 cores mean?
- Dylan16807 4y agon here is the number of cores So subtract two. Leave two free.
- ElectricalUnion 4y agoYou want to use better localized memory structures in faster cache, and you want to allow the use of the higher frequency/IPC cores instead of being thermally/memory bandwidth limited by all the cores being loaded at lower frequency all the time.
