+# - Determine the number of processors/cores

+# Sets the variable PROCESSOR_COUNT to the number of physical cores available
+# on the machine if the information can be determined. Otherwise it is set to
+# 0. Currently this functionality is only implemented for Windows, Mac OS X and
+# Unix system providing the /proc/cpuinfo interface (e.g. Linux).
+
+# A more reliable way might be to compile a small C program that uses the CPUID
+# instruction, but that again requires compiler support or compiling assembler
+# code.
