Use book instructions as written for parallelism. If you
answer no, then jhalfs will fall back to a static number of
cores, defined below. If you answer y, and your system
supports it, you'll be asked for a cpu set to use.

config CPUSET

help
See "List format" in cpuset(7). Choosing cpus depend
on the topology of your processors. Sometimes two
hyperthreads on the same core are numbered consecutively.
For example for using all cores and no hyperthreading on
a Haswell, use "0,2,4,6". Other brands may have a different
topology, and may require e.g. "0-3" to use the first 4 cores.
If not sure, keep the default.
