Using hyperthreading

Hyperthreading is being rolled out to all Euler nodes. It is already enabled on all Euler III nodes.

Hyperthreading is a technology that allows two processes or threads to run simultaneously on a single physical core. In some cases this allows you to increase the throughput of your program at the expense of longer execution time of each individual thread.
