I want to use 8 threads to run a program. The information of my server is as follow.
number of physical CPU: 2 number of CPU core: cpu cores : 4 number of processor: 16
So how many cores of the server can I use at one time at most?

If they are all compute bound, about 8 (the 16 is coming from hyper-threading, i.e., fake cores). if the threads are IO bound you can have a lot more.
