There is one processor per thread.

Sorry, the article must not have been clear. If you can point out where in the article you got the impression there were multiple processors per thread, I can try to update the article to fix.

I just got a bit into the “One queue, many processors” section and that’s where I got confused. Knowing it’s one processor per CPU is the information I needed. Thanks!

From that section.

> There are multiple processors, each running on a separate thread.

It's probably easy to miss, do you have thoughts on where else this can be clarified?

Not OP, but I had to go back and double check that this was true when I saw that the Hyper benchmark at the bottom only used 1 thread. Wouldn't you want to test on multiple?

The Hyper benchmark uses multiple threads. When I ran the benchmark, I modified the version found in Hyper's github to use both the old multi-threaded scheduler and the new multi-threaded scheduler.

I probably should make that clear in the article.
