Counting processors

[MrJean1]

Or maybe

  os.sysconf('SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN')

Usually, the value returned by os.sysconf('SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN') and
os.sysconf('SC_NPROCESSORS_CONF') are the same, but if they do differ,
os.sysconf('SC_NPROCESSORS_ONLN') is the reliably figure.

PS) This applies to Linux and Solaris, at least.
