[issue33166] os.cpu_count() returns wrong number of processors on specific systems

Maybe i'm missing something, and would appreciate clarification.

Perhaps psutil is wrong, but it gives an answer that has something to do with the actual situation.

On platform 2, i have 2 Intel Xeon Gold 6138, each with 20 physical processors, 40 logicals.

you are saying i need to rely on os.cpu_count(), which outputs '128'. Can you elaborate on this?

Moreover, when attempting to parallelize on the processors, i reach 25% utilization, which suggests Python 'sees' only one processor group.
