Right, so either way an argument based on 2 threads per core is irrelevant,
which is the argument you made in point (2) earlier.  It doesn't make sense
to argue about the benefits of threads under a layout that's know to be
suboptimal in larger ways.  The threads-vs-procs debate is about 1
thread-per-core vs 1-proc-per-core, not N-threads-per-core vs
N-procs-per-core.
