Hi all,

Any idea on the context for this string?

#: harddrake2:84
#, fuzzy, c-format
msgid "Siblings"

Thanks,

Remco

Hi,

Historically was supposed that the siblings are the number of HT siblings for a given CPU.

Hope this helps.

Maybe easier explanation can be found at http://planet.admon.org/about-cpu-the-logical-and-physical-cores/ : "The siblings entry lists the number of logical processors that exist on the same physical package"
