<div class='docblock'><p>A crate with utilities to determine the number of CPUs available on the
current system.</p>
<p>Sometimes the CPU will exaggerate the number of CPUs it contains, because it can use
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simultaneous_multithreading">processor tricks</a> to deliver increased performance when there are more threads. This
crate provides methods to get both the logical and physical numbers of cores.</p>
<p>This information can be used as a guide to how many tasks can be run in parallel.
There are many properties of the system architecture that will affect parallelism,
for example memory access speeds (for all the caches and RAM) and the physical
architecture of the processor, so the number of CPUs should be used as a rough guide
only.</p>
<h2 id="examples" class="section-header"><a href="#examples">Examples</a></h2>
<p>Fetch the number of logical CPUs.</p>

<p>See <a href="https://docs.rs/rayon/0.8.2/rayon/struct.ThreadPool.html"><code>rayon::Threadpool</code></a> for an example of where the number of CPUs could be
used when setting up parallel jobs (Where the threadpool example uses a fixed
number 8, it could use the number of CPUs).</p>

<h2>Search Tricks</h2>
<p>
Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g.
<code>fn:</code>) to restrict the search to a given type.
</p>
<p>
Accepted types are: <code>fn</code>, <code>mod</code>,
<code>struct</code>, <code>enum</code>,
<code>trait</code>, <code>type</code>, <code>macro</code>,
and <code>const</code>.
</p>
<p>
Search functions by type signature (e.g.
<code>vec -> usize</code> or <code>* -> vec</code>)
