I do believe this change is for the better but I'm not an expert and so I cannot ascertain that is always better. @malfet what's the plan on the benchmarks haha

Will this work properly for partial CPU allocations on SLURM clusters?

This might be a noop concern but was also curious how a change like this affects the performance of distributed jobs

I can only hope for it :)

I'm just worried becaues there might be say 16 logical cores, and only 4 are available to the job meaning that the cores become over-subscribed.

@Skylion007 that is the exact type of problem we're attempting to fix, as processors usually means threads and cores means actual cores (what we're thinking). @malfet's PR will be strictly an improvement on that front as written compared to before the change.

LGTM - tested both a hyperthreaded multicore and non hyperthreaded multicore. It gives the correct thread count now.

Hi @gajjanag, can you please clarify if you meant you were getting incorrect counts earlier with torch.get_num_threads?
For instance, even with HyperThreading enabled on an Intel machine, I only see physical core count with torch.get_num_threads at my end (without this patch).

Thanks!

Yes, I was getting incorrect counts before this patch (eg a 2 socket 56 core each Intel was giving 224 thread count, but it now gives the correct 112)

Thanks for confirming, @gajjanag!

That hasn't been my experience, with HyperThreading enabled (without this patch) -

We need to chat about this. Perhaps cpuinfo does not correctly work on your system, but it should have returned number of logical cores rather than physical ones.
