Currently the number of cores is determined by greping //proc/cpuinfo:
evergreen.yml: CMAKE_BIN=$CMAKE ./configure_combinations.sh -g="${cmake_generator|Ninja}" -j=$(grep -c ^processor /proc/cpuinfo) 2>&1
evergreen.yml: smp_command: -j $(echo "`grep -c ^processor /proc/cpuinfo` * 2" | bc)
evergreen.yml: smp_command: -j $(grep -c ^processor /proc/cpuinfo)
evergreen.yml: smp_command: -j $(echo $(grep -c ^processor /proc/cpuinfo) / 4 | bc)
evergreen.yml: smp_command: -j $(echo $(grep -c ^processor /proc/cpuinfo) / 2 | bc)
evergreen.yml: smp_command: -j $(echo "`grep -c ^processor /proc/cpuinfo` * 2" | bc)
evergreen_develop.yml: smp_command: -j $(echo "`grep -c ^processor /proc/cpuinfo` * 2" | bc)
This could be simplified by replacing the above with nproc.
Also greping /proc/cpuinfo will return the number of processors reported by the system. Which is *not* necessarily the number of processors available to the process, which could be restricted with a mechanism such as cgroups. While this scenario seems unlikely, it should be considered/validated.
